We’re so proud of the students from University of Canberra High School Kaleen who crushed their first-ever debate at the National Library of Australia during #SSW2024! They tackled the big question: Should social media be banned for those under 16? Thanks to @profholden @lindacbotterill for coaching & adjudicating support.

What a fantastic evening at our @SocSciWeek Great Debate: 'Does social media unite or divide us?' Thanks to our brilliant debaters, Prof @lisagiven & Prof Anthony Elliott AM, for delivering engaging & insightful perspectives for showcasing the power of #socialscience to illuminate complex societal challenges.
