The Peruvian Debate Society (PDS) is an inter-collegiate student debating association headquartered in Lima, Peru, aimed to promote debate and discussion on current national and international issues in order to form leading citizens who contribute to development by competing in Model United Nations (MUN) conferences globally. Since its foundation in 2014, their participation at national and international level has yielded multiple awards, consistently being ranked as the best Model UN team in the nation and one of the top international debate teams in the world.[1]
In the 2017–2018 debating season, PDS achieved for the first time the Best Large Delegation award at Harvard World Model United Nations 2018 held in Panama City, Panama, being the second Peruvian MUN team in achieving such international recognition.[2][3][4] The following season, the team achieved the Outstanding Large Delegation Award at the same conference, held in this occasion at Madrid, Spain.[5]
Having participated at regional level since 2015, PDS is the incumbent champion at the Harvard National Model United Nations - Latin America conference, and is the MUN team with most delegation awards in the history of the conference, garnering the Best Large Delegation a total of six times.[6][7]
2017–2018
The Peruvian Debate Society was constituted as a non-profit civil association for the promotion of education in Peru, in 2017. As an organization, it is composed by Associates, which in turn make-up the General Assembly, presided by a Board of Directors (composed of four elected associates).
The current Board of Directors is led by Sebastián Morello Montes, former Delegate (2016–2019) and Faculty Advisor (2019–2020; 2023–2025).
The PDS civil association is formally established under an official Constitution Act and Statute, to which every associate is subject to its rules and standing orders.
