Behes is a non-profit organization working to promote debate, public speaking and reasoned expression in schools and colleges throughout India and beyond. We are committed to the vision of building a global platform for young students to express themselves and debate some engaging and relevant topics.<\/p>\n<p>Every Behes tournament is a celebration of ideas, with students exploring a wide variety of topics and critically examining them. Designed to be interactive and challenging, each tournament rewards the top teams with qualification to the Maha Behes, our national season finale held in the National Capital Region (NCR) every Christmas. All the debate topics at our events are given impromptu and based on a suggested reading (and viewing) list that is updated every few months. Students explore selections spanning a variety of disciplines in their bid to challenge the best in the debating community.<\/p>\n<p>The free-flowing debate format encourages growth of research, collaborative and analytical apart from oratory skills. Behes has now made its way into nine cities in the 2017 season with over three thousand lives impacted, some of them as young as nine years old. We also offer workshops at gracious host schools (usually preceding tournaments) where we demonstrate How to &#8216;Behes&#8217;.

What I saw was a need for an initiative that could connect with a broad base of students and bring them together under a common platform, where we could introduce the transformative power of debate to kids who perhaps would never find the activity approachable.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do you manage the environment of the company? What principles do you believe in?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our team has come together over the last couple of seasons, to become a family where most of us would put ourselves on the line for each other. That I think is the value that symbolizes us &#8211; <strong>We can&#8217;t have anyone on board who doesn&#8217;t believe in the mission.<\/strong> That thousands have taken up this mission with us is proof that it works. With that in place, environment, morale, motivation, efficiency, everything falls in place. Sorry if that was too cult leader-y.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What are your areas of Interest?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I like to follow what&#8217;s going on in the world, though since 2016 that feels like placing a nail on your forehead and swinging at it with a hammer everyday.
