In Croatia

Two debates in which 32 locals from the city of Osijek took part were organized on April 4 and 5, 2022, from 6:00 to 7:00 pm, in studio 101 at the Osijek Cultural Center. In the first debate 18 participants discussed about security challenges and maintaining peace in the EU primarily due to the situation in Ukraine. The participants were randomly divided into two groups of 9 members each. The first debate began with a 10-minute introductory speech on the topic of the selected representatives of each of the groups. After that, other participants joined in and discussed about the topic for 40 minutes. Finally, the selected representatives of each of the groups summarized the opinions of their members and made a conclusion on the topic within 10 minutes. In the second debate 14 participants discussed about the future of Croatia in the EU. Everything went according to the same principle as the previous day.
