A team from the “Nogotte” debate club of HUFS won the grand prize at the 6th National Collegiate Population Debate Championship held at the National Assembly on July 6.

In the final of the championship, organized by the Korea Population, Health and Welfare Association, the “Sangbusangjo (Helping each other)” team beat the Golden Time team.

Under the theme, “The marriage rate increases when the awareness of gender equality spreads,” the Sangbusangjo team got high scores for their reasoning and ability to listen and persuade.

Lee Deok (LD ‘17) of the Sangbusangjo team said, “The tension in the debate was beyond imagination, but it was helpful to continue the discussion and research in the club. I was really glad when we won.”
