    Free speech allowed, indeed. I attended the Battle of Ideas as a volunteer of WORLDwrite to film the debates. It was really interesting! Everyone shared their ideas, be it professionals or the average citizen. In the Battle of Ideas opinions clash, are altered or born. It¿s like a garden that grows critical thoughts, a playground for minds that don¿t accept being fed opinions like babies milk. It¿s a great opportunity for everyone to broaden their horizon and have a voice and of their own. The parties were fun, too... The Battle of Ideas is no dry conference after all, but a tropical mix of all different kinds of thoughts and people. I can¿t wait for next year. Why don¿t you give it a go, too? Watching WORLDwrite¿s upcoming segments about it can give you a little taste of it. The Battle of Ideas is like a cookie - once you had one, you can¿t get enough. And it even encourages you to bake your own.

Description: Now in its fifth year, the Battle of Ideas festival is upon us once again.  With over seventy debates, organised by the Institute of Ideas and hosted by the Royal College of Art, everything is up for grabs, from education and its discontents, to Africa and the recession, activism, war and scientific enquiry. The Battle of Ideas promises two-days of vigorous debate in a forum where 'free speech is allowed'.  Director Claire Fox tells us more.
