IDEA seeks Russian debatabase writers

Debatabase, IDEA's database of hundreds of debate topics, will soon be available in Russian!

The Debatabase in the Russian language is going to be a high-quality topic research resource, highlighting the major pros and cons of many Russian and CIS issues. This resource will help Russian-speaking users find arguments for and against hundreds of debating topics, written by expert debaters, judges and coaches from Russia and nations where Russian is a second language.

IDEA is looking for people (coaches, debaters and students with experience and interest in specific issues) to put together written debates in Russian (5-6 arguments on both sides) on topics that are often debated in countries of the former USSR. This is an ongoing project, so we are looking for people who can start right away in March 2012. If you are a prospective author or contributor - what are you waiting for?!
