First Debate, Then Elevate
​

​The Anti-Debate is a new format for debate where participants build on each other's insights, so that greater complexity can emerge.

Despite its name, the Anti-Debate is not anti-debate. It actually starts out like a traditional debate, with opening statements and rebuttals. But then it goes further — guiding participants to explore how they might integrate their perspectives into a bigger picture. Hence our tagline: First Debate, Then Elevate

Ultimately, the Anti-Debate is a debate that everyone can win. The Anti-Debate is also a debate that everyone can remix! Poke around this website, check out examples, and adapt the format for your purposes.

​The Anti-Debate is a project of Synthesis Media — an independent production studio devoted to accelerating the next enlightenment.
