Saigon Practical Philosophy

About the event

πŸ›οΈ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?
Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and build a community. No β€˜official’ philosophy knowledge is required! 😎
The aim is to make philosophy accessible to everyone, not just academics. Each week, we choose a topic to develop our critical thinking and communication skills while exploring it together. πŸ™Œ

πŸ““ HOW DOES IT WORK?
Each week, we select a topic and discuss it. The topic is shared in the WhatsApp group, along with discussion points to kick off the conversation.
When groups exceed 5-6 people, we break into smaller groups to maintain a conversational flow. Please comply when asked to move to another table.

General Meeting Agenda:

  • 16:00-16:15 - Arrival and casual chat.
  • 16:15-16:25 - Introduction to Practical Philosophy and the week's topic, along with guidelines.
  • 16:25-17:45 - Break into small groups for introductions and open discussion.
  • 17:45-18:00 - Regroup to share conclusions; each group gives a brief summary.
  • 18:30 - Optional dinner outing in the neighborhood.

🧧 PRICING?
Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! You may want to order a beverage to support the coffeehouse hosting us. A drink is around 55k VND, and if you join for dinner, we aim to keep it under 90k VND per person.
