From 21 to 24 November, in conjunction with World Philosophy Day, the fourth edition of the “Festival of Philosophy in Dialogue“, organized byFilò association and titled “Let’s take care of dinners”. This year’s edition invites you to reflect on the importance of care as a collective practice, essential to address current challenges, from social cohesion to environmental protection. They will be four days full of dialogues, workshops and training activities, with the aim of exploring and imagining new possibilities of care and salvation for social relationships and our planet.
The program, designed for all ages, ranges from philosophical fairy tales for the elderly to training meetings for educators, from workshops for children and adolescents to artistic and philosophical activities for young adults. The focus is on the profound meaning of care, understood not only as attention to oneself and others, but also as commitment towards the entire community and towards the environment.
“Let’s take care of dinners” It presents itself as a festival, but above all it should be seen as an opportunity to reconsider together our way of living and relating. Through philosophical dialogue, this edition of the “Festival of Philosophy in Dialogue” intends to guide us to reflect on the value of care as an act that can transform the present and contribute to the construction of a more aware and supportive future.
