Australasian Intervarsity Debating Championships information
Annual debating tournament for teams from universities in the Australasian region.
The Australasian Intervarsity Debating Championships (known colloquially as "Australs") is an annual debating tournament for teams from universities in the Australasian region. It is one of the world's largest debating tournaments, second only in size to the World Universities Debating Championship (WUDC), the European Universities Debating Championships (EUDC) and one of the largest annual student events in the world. Australs follows the Australia-Asian Debating format (three speakers plus replies), rather than the British Parliamentary Style used at WUDC. It is held every year in early-July under the auspices of the Australasian Intervarsity Debating Association (AIDA). The host university is selected a year before at a meeting of the Council of the Australasian Intervarsity Debating Association.
The best speaker of the tournament is awarded the "Martin Sorensen Trophy", and the best speaker of the Grand Final is awarded the "Jock Fanselow Cup".
The most recent edition of Australs was held by EduDrift in partnership with Chulalongkorn University. The tournament was held in person for the first time since 2019 and hosted in Krabi, Thailand. The current champions are Isabella Freeland, Eugene Bakker and Charlie Ryan of the University of Sydney Union.
