The World Individual Debating and Public Speaking Championships (WIDPSC) is an annual English language debating and public speaking tournament for individual high school-level students representing different countries. It is the public speaking equivalent of the World Schools Debating Championships.
The most recent event was hosted in April 2024 by the Canberra Girls Grammar School in Canberra, Australia and crowned Canada's Anna Gage as the overall world champion. The 2025 edition of the event is slated to be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the first time the nation will serve as host for competition and marking WIDPSC's first Asian host since Hong Kong in 2015.
