SCARBOROUGH - Practical Philosophy 🇨🇦

🏛️ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?
Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up designed for critical thinkers to explore diverse topics, enhance communication skills, and foster community. No prior knowledge of philosophy is required! 😎
This initiative aims to make philosophy accessible to everyone, moving beyond academic barriers. Each week, participants select a topic and engage in discussions to sharpen their critical thinking and connect with others. The ultimate goal is to cultivate Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community. 🙌

📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?
Every week, a specific topic is chosen to spark conversation. The topic is communicated through the WhatsApp group along with guiding questions to facilitate discussion.
When group sizes exceed 7-8 members, we break into smaller groups to ensure a more interactive and flowing conversation, avoiding a lecture-like atmosphere.

General Meeting Agenda
The agenda for each meet-up typically includes:

• 19:00-19:15 - Arrival and casual chatting to break the ice.
• 19:15-19:25 - Introduction to the meeting, explanation of Practical Philosophy, and review of the week's topic along with meeting guidelines.

• 20:45-21:00 - Reconvene to summarize key discussions, with each group sharing a brief recap. The organizer concludes the meeting, and everyone can gather for a group photo.
• 21:00 - The official meet-up ends, but attendees are encouraged to stay and mingle!
