The South African General Election

CliffCentral has partnered with Absa and Tshimong to create a debate podcast called The Interchange. The podcast calls on some of the best university debaters to debate critical and controversial issues in South Africa, and Africa as a whole.

The debaters use an existing debate format called British Parliamentary Debating, which consists of two debaters per team, speaking on opposing sides. This style of debating is very powerful for shaping discourse in society. The conversations on the show are highly intellectual and introduce an incredible amount of nuance on issues that often seem black or white.

If you’re a critical thinker, then The Interchange is the show for you!
