Should animals be kept in zoos?
Last night, Debating London hosted a public debate on whether animals should be kept in zoos. The speakers were members of of our training programme, the Great Debaters Club, who had spent the last week preparing their arguments for and against the motion. Below is a summary of what they said and how well it went down with our audience.
After the debate, we ran a focus group session to understand why the audience voted the way they did.
