The European Union in Thailand National Intervarsity Debate Championship (EUTH) is an Asian Parliamentary format annual debate tournament for high school and university students. It is one of the most well-known and accepted tournaments in Thailand for its high quality and standards.

It serves as a platform for young people to engage in constructive exchanges of ideas on cultural, political, and economic issues related to the EU.

Established in 2004 by Thammasat University, this purely student-led debate tournament has evolved over the years, with the Delegation of the European Union to Thailand serving as the primary title sponsor annually.

Since 2005, the tournament has grown in size and quality by incorporating other universities such as Assumption University, Chulalongkorn University, Kasetsart University, and Mahidol University International College. In 2008, recognising its growing popularity and high standards of the debate, the event expanded to include teams of high school students.

With the increasing number of participants nationwide, the Championship in 2012 ventured outside of Bangkok for the first time, hosted in Khon Kaen province by Khon Kaen University. This edition was also the first to receive royal patronage from Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn in its trophies awarded to winners.

After a temporary halt due to the pandemic, the European Union in Thailand National Intervarsity Debate Championship is set to make its return with its 15th edition. Co-hosted by Chulalongkorn University, the Championship is scheduled to take place on 27-30 January 2024 at Chulalongkorn University.
