I am organising the 6th year of Philosophy Convention Prague - a unique gathering for people where we share our ideas and thoughts on philosophy and about finding our way in life towards more freedom and positivity. The Philosophy Convention aims to provide you with actionable suggestions for life and to give space for the attendees active participation so that everybody can share what they find important.
The essence of the event is mutual enrichment. We look into topics such as psychology and self-development, as well as important aspects of life such as freedom, economics, bitcoin, education and how to raise our families without the state.
We go back to the purpose of the original philosophy which is to simplify our living. Philosophy meant to work on problems of our everyday life and seek wisdom to show us how to live happier or more meaningful lives. The event will be partly held on walks and excursions as well in the theatre of A Maze in Tchaiovna on Kafkova 18 in Prague from 25th to 28th September 2020.
The programme of 2020
Me and Kristyna will be co-hosts and lead the convention. We will focus on the subject of "The future" this year - on how we can find enlightment in it. Some of the topics will be the digital future, how bitcoin is changing the world, what is value and can we have equal worth? While maintaining our positivity we will also point out some errors by the state and how to fix it. We will discuss how to raise our families in a morally and sustainable way not only for this generation but the coming ones as well, I will share about a better way of educating our kids without the state, amongst other things, The programme is not set yet because we just started our planning - it is a great opportunity for those that wants to share their ideas to do it here.
About the Location
We will be in A maze in Tchaiovna which is a pretty cool tea house place with the right kind of atmosphere and enough space for us. There are toys and a kids corner. The room that we will be in is behind a book shelf "secret door". There is a small stage, lots of chairs, a bar, sofas etc. There are small comfortable rooms for more private discussions as well. The location is between Hradcanska and Dejvice metrostops, its quite close to the Vitezne Namesti tram stop as well. It is Prague 6 and its quite close to Stromovka park, the castle, Letna park and Holesovice.
About the content
We have a special format where we spend about half of the time in a place where we can share our ideas, and half the time we go on philosophy walks and excursions. It is us, the participants that creates the content. It is well described in this video.
How to be a participant
Does it sound like a wonderful opportunity for you to share ideas with likeminded - and also in a kid-friendly environment? The you should secure your place here right now. You can join the facebook group for the event here. Bare in mind, that the event is created by us - it means that the people that participate will lead the discussions and workshops, or be the speakers - it is not obligatory at all but adds value to the event.
Recommendations for visitors
If you dont live in Prague and plan to come to the event we can recommend that you stay in the area where the event will be held, which is Prague 6 and 7 mostly. If you have children you will likely have a good stay if you are close to the Stromovka park which is excellent for families with its many playgrounds and romantic settings.
What are the costs?
The event is funded by donations and the content is created by the participants. Welcome.
