SCARBOROUGH - Practical Philosophy 🇨🇦

🏛️ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?
Practical Philosophy is a unique weekly meet-up designed for critical thinkers to come together, delve deeply into various topics, enhance their communication skills, and foster community connections. No prior philosophy knowledge is required! 😎
The core belief behind Practical Philosophy is that philosophy should be accessible to everyone, transcending academic circles. Every week, we select a new topic to engage in stimulating discussions aimed at cultivating critical thinking and stronger communication skills. Join us in building our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community! 🙌

📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?
Each week, a specific topic is chosen for discussion, which is communicated through our Whatsapp group alongside discussion prompts. To facilitate better conversations, groups larger than 7-8 participants will break into smaller groups. This approach ensures a more engaging dialogue rather than a one-sided lecture.
