#1 经济 Economics
Resolved: The World Bank should prioritize grants over loans for climate adaptation projects in low-income countries.
世界银行应优先以赠款而非贷款的形式，为低收入国家的气候适应项目提供资金支持。
Low-income countries may be the most susceptible to the effects of climate change despite having a low contribution to global warming.
Pro teams will claim that grants help such countries build up their infrastructure, save communities, and prepare for climatic disasters without increasing their already high levels of debt burdens.
On the other hand, Con teams will claim that loans give the World Bank an opportunity to fund more projects, and encourage responsible spending while keeping grants for the most in need countries and emergency situations.
The debate will focus on climate justice and debt sustainability versus financial efficiency, accountability, and the long-term availability of development funding.
#2 经济 Economics
Resolved: On balance, the rise of the gig economy has been beneficial to the global labor market.
总体而言，零工经济的兴起对全球劳动力市场利大于弊。
Online platforms and temporary gig jobs have revolutionized the ways that millions of people find employment and earn money.
The Pro teams will argue that the gig economy increases employment opportunities, offers flexible hours, promotes innovation, and creates economic opportunities for individuals who might have difficulty gaining employment through more traditional methods.
The Con teams counter that gig workers face unstable incomes, lack bargaining power, experience algorithmic control, and lack any employee benefits such as health insurance or retirement.
Debates will weigh flexibility and employment access against job security, worker protections, and the long-term quality of work.
#3 科技 Technology
Resolved: The European Union should ban social media for kids under the age of 16.
欧盟应禁止16岁以下未成年人使用社交媒体。
With increasing concerns about the impacts of social media on children, calls for increased regulation are becoming more common throughout Europe.
Teams on the Pro will claim that banning these apps at a European Union level is necessary to shield children from addictive platform designs, harmful content, cyberbullying, data collection, and negative mental health consequences.
On the Con side of the debate, teams will claim that a ban will not only be hard to enforce, but will most definitely involve invasive age verification systems and limit young people's access to information and freedom of expression.
The debate will center on whether stronger child protection justifies limitations on personal autonomy, privacy, and digital expression.
#4 美国政治 U.S. Politics
Resolved: Governments in the United States should prohibit for-profit companies from operating prisons, jails, and detention facilities.
美国各政府应禁止营利性公司运营监狱、看守所及拘留设施。
The participation of private companies in the United States correctional and detention systems has always been contentious.
The Pro will claim that the ability of such companies to make profits through incarceration may motivate them to cut costs, undermine rehabilitation programs, and consider occupancy and profitability rather than safety, respect, and justice.
On the other hand, the Con will claim that such companies can help in reducing expenses for the government, increase capacity, and operate effectively when subjected to strong contracts and public oversight.
The debate will focus on whether profit motives are fundamentally incompatible with incarceration and detention or can be managed to improve efficiency within the justice system.
#5 国际关系 International Relations
Resolved: The UN Security Council should be reformed to include permanent representation from Africa and Latin America.
联合国安理会应进行改革，纳入来自非洲和拉丁美洲的常任理事国席位。
The Structure of the UN Security Council has remained largely the same in spite of significant changes in the global population size, economy, and international politics.
The Pro side will claim that adding permanent members from Africa and Latin America will make the Council more inclusive, increase its legitimacy and provide regions affected by decisions of the Council with a stronger voice in global security.
The Con side will stress that adding more permanent members can lead to political paralysis, disagreements about who needs permanent membership, and difficulties in further reforms.
Debates will weigh fairness and global representation against institutional effectiveness, regional rivalry, and political feasibility.
