About us
The goal of the Practical Philosophy Club is to create a community that is open discussing ideas that can be used practically in everyday life.
-
Our discussions help us develop the following:
*
* Critical Thinking / Discernment - through our conversational exploration, we question our own beliefs, and hear perspectives that can help us develop new insights. This exploration can carry into our assumptions in everyday life and help us develop.```
-
Communication - By sharing our thoughts, we are developing our communication ability, and learning how to share in a way that is understandable and accessible to people who may not have the same belief.
-
Community - By having our discussions focused on a specific topic each week, we are able to get to know each other beyond small talk. There’s also time before and after the meetup to dive deeper with the other attendees. 🙌
```
-
Most importantly, we are a group that values community and care for one another.
We value communication, simplicity, balance, honesty and discernment as values to live by, and look to build a community around these values.
We meet each week in various places throughout the world. To learn more about our community, see our open events, or join one of our groups around the world, visit our website: https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/

The goal of the Practical Philosophy Club is to create a community that is open to discussing ideas that can be used practically in everyday life.
this group isn’t aligning necessarily with the specific scope that „philosophy“ and „practical philosophy“ may have in the academic world
**We don't have topics that are off-limits and look to discuss all sides of a topic in order to:
- help you understand your point of view,
- Give you different perspectives, and
- realize that we all have some common ground and just because someone isn't on your "side" doesn't mean they are your enemy.**
We value communication, simplicity, balance, honesty, and discernment as values to live by, and look to build a community around these values.
The typical meeting is about 10-15 minutes of banter to warm up before we move to introduce the weekly discussion topics. If the group is large we will split into separate groups so as to maintain a conversational tone within the discussions. At 6:45pm we bring all of the groups together and conclude.
Why is it 1 Euro?
This is to cover our expenses on meetup. Practical Philosophy is a global organization, with chapters in more than 28 countries. We do not have a large amount of expenses, and we stay lean, but one that we can't avoid, is the cost of a Meetup subscription.This wasn't a big deal when it was only one account, but in 2025 alone, our organization spent over $5000 of the founders money on Meetup accounts. In order to keep philosophy accessible, and bring the gift of deep discussion to communities around the world, each group needs to be self-sustaining.
For this reason, we must charge a euro to cover the Meetup costs, and 100% of funds will go towards the Meetup subscription.
Thank you for your understanding.
