Roundtables

The aim of these series of Global Minds Debates is to stimulate and excite people from across the world about the current important topics around the world and particularly the topics selected for our annual conferences. WASD has been very keen, particularly during the global lockdown from the Coronavirus pandemic, to share theses debates with its global audience live on WASD Facebook page using various live streaming applications. Each roundtable debate is different ranging from 2-5 international experts talking live for about 45mins to 3hr max, no slides but rather global minds conversation.
