Welcome to the Website of DAPDI 2011!

With the first good weather in the Netherlands comes a feeling of restlessness for the members of the Erasmus Debating Society. In their minds, the equation summer + Holland = DAPDI. This year, a team more dedicated than ever has taken up the challenge of organizing the best DAPDI the debating world has ever seen!

DAPDI is an international training week for debaters from all over the globe. The world’s finest debaters and trainers (most commonly represented in the same person) from Oxford university come to Rotterdam to teach eager debaters the skills that are necessary to become debating champions. The last two days of DAPDI consist of a tournament, organized and judged by these tutors.

Please take a look at the different sections of this website to get yourself informed on all the ins and outs with respect to this year's DAPDI. Should you have any questions please refer to the contact page to reach us.

Unfortunately, DAPDI 2011 is already over again. The tournament was won by Rooj Darweesh and Azer Aras. Rogier Baart and Joris Broeders respectively won the best speaker award and best novice speaker award.
