Practical Philosophy Meetup - Port Credit 🇨🇦

🏛️ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY?
Practical Philosophy is a dynamic weekly gathering that invites critical thinkers to come together and explore various topics, improving their communication skills and building a vibrant community. No prior philosophy knowledge is necessary! 😎
This initiative champions the idea that philosophy should be inclusive and accessible to everyone, not just academics. Each week, a new topic is selected, and through engaging discussions, participants enhance their critical thinking and conversational abilities. Our mission is to foster Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community! 🙌

📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?
Each meetup focuses on a designated topic that is shared in the Whatsapp group, along with prompts to kickstart discussions.
To maintain an engaging atmosphere, when attendance exceeds 7-8 people, we split into smaller groups to facilitate smoother conversations rather than a lecture-like environment.

General Meeting Agenda:

• 19:00-19:15 - Gather and mingle: get to know each other prior to the formal start.
• 19:15-19:25 - Meeting kick-off, introduction to Practical Philosophy, and overview of the week's topic, along with guidelines to set expectations.
• 19:25-20:45 - Break into small groups: introduce yourselves and share initial thoughts about the topic, followed by open discussions. The provided questions are optional and meant to guide dialogue.
• 20:45-21:00 - Regroup to share conclusions: each group presents a brief 1-minute summary. The organizer wraps up the session, and we capture a group photo.
• 21:00 - Official meeting concludes, but feel free to stay and engage further!
