The NAUDL engages in advocacy and fundraising on behalf of Urban Debate Leagues (UDLs), which operate at 500 high schools and middle schools in 19 cities across the U.S., including Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Dallas, D.C., New York, and Los Angeles.[1] Debate is believed to improve critical thinking skills and educational outcomes.[2] Special EventsUrban Debate National ChampionshipEstablished in 2008, this tournament features 84 of the nation’s top UDL debaters squaring off in a major U.S. city every April. Debaters compete in regional tournaments for the right to advance to the National Championship. Shagun Kukreja and Amna Tariq from University High School of Humanities in Newark, New Jersey won the 2011 Championship on a 3-0 decision.[3] NAUDL Annual DinnerThis event is held to “celebrate the growth of urban debate and its life-changing impact on students nationwide.” It takes place every April, and precedes the start of the National Championship. The event is attended by former debaters and supporters.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Urban Debate Quick Facts|url=http://www.urbandebate.org/quickfacts.shtml|work=About Urban Debate|publisher=NAUDL|accessdate=26 September 2011|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111024003851/http://www.urbandebate.org/quickfacts.shtml|archivedate=24 October 2011|df=}} 2. ^{{cite book|last=Barfield|first=Kenny|title=A study of the relationship between active participation in interscholastic debating and the development of critical thinking skills with implications for school administrators and instructional leaders|year=1989|publisher=University of Alabama|url=https://books.google.com/books/about/A_study_of_the_relationship_between_acti.html?id=j0YuHwAACAAJ}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=The Urban Debate National Championship|url=http://www.urbandebate.org/nationalchampionship.shtml|work=Events|publisher=National Association for Urban Debate Leagues|accessdate=28 September 2011|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110926011519/http://www.urbandebate.org/nationalchampionship.shtml|archivedate=26 September 2011|df=}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=NAUDL Annual Dinner|url=http://www.urbandebate.org/nationaldinner.shtml|work=Events|publisher=National Association for Urban Debate Leagues|accessdate=28 September 2011|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111024004541/http://www.urbandebate.org/nationaldinner.shtml|archivedate=24 October 2011|df=}} 1 : Debating societies |
