The Great Debate is somewhat associated with the libertarian anti-environmental LM network. Established in 1998, [1] it collaborates with, amongst others, organisations associated with the LM network such as the Battle of Ideas, Debating Matters, Institute of Ideas, the Transport Research Group and WORLDwrite.[2] The Great Debate was a 2008 Battle of Ideas partner.

Previous contributors to events of the organisation have included LM network associates Ian AbleyDaniel Ben-Ami, Andrew Calcutt, Suzy Dean, Ceri Dingle, Frank Furedi, Tony Gilland, John Gillott, Helene Guldberg, James Heartfield, Alex Hochuli, Kenan Malik, Viv Regan, Nathalie Rothschild, James Woudhuysen and a number of other WORLDwrite personnel.[3][4] Of a total of around one hundred and forty speakers around twenty or about 15% are associated with the LM network.

As its core personnel do not appear to participate in LM network organisations, it is presumed that The Great Debate works with the network rather than being integrated with it through shared personnel and philosophy.
