!ENGLISH! MONDAY DOUBLE SESSION / CAFE - Philosophy Meetup: 19:30h - 21h
Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup!
Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue?
If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you.
• WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT?
We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts.
The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives.
Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others.
A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning.
• WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP?
Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view.
Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups:
* What ideals are worth dying for?
* Why are we never satisfied?
* Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is?
* Is identity necessary?
* How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others)
* What is friendship?
• WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP?
Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory.
Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue.
The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

Impact of Urban Heat on Migrant Communities in Europe
As we experience unprecedented heat this summer, have you ever wondered how some of the cities most vulnerable people are doing?
Migrants across European cities are highly vulnerable to heatwaves and higher temperatures due to structural inequalities and historical exclusion - for example, they might be working in jobs that require them to be exposed more to the heat such as in construction, food delivery, etc; or live in housing that are less heat-prepared.
In this session, we will hear from Fizza, a PhD Researcher at ICTA-UAB, about her research using feminist and participatory methods, that seeks to understand how urban heat impacts every day wellbeing of migrants from the Global Majority. Fizza will share findings from the workshops in Athens, Greece with migrant communities, bringing forth perspectives from women and queer migrants who are impacted disproportionately. As a group, we will also discuss how these heat impacts translate to the context of Barcelona and how community knowledge can help build more just, inclusive and heat-resilient cities.
**We kindly ask for a donation to help cover the groups' meet-up annual subscription of 183.26 euros and support the venue. Please feel free to give according to your ability, up to 5 euros. We especially welcome those living on minimum means to enjoy the event for free.**
**More about the speaker: Fizza**
Fizza is working at the intersection of climate justice, urban and feminist geography and planning. She started her career as an architect in Pakistan and received a double Master's in international cooperation and urban development from Germany and Spain. Her work and engagement in the development sector motivated her to shift towards community-driven approaches, bringing forth non-western narratives grounded in decolonial epistemologies.
**More about the venue: The Permaculture Barcelona Hub**
Launched by this event's co-host and permaculture educator Alfred Decker as a dedicated space where people can come together to learn permaculture design, experience urban ecology, connect with local activists and communities, and explore the deeper questions about where the international permaculture movement needs to go next.
The Hub is not just another course venue. It is a meeting point — between the local and the global, between nature and the built environment, between traditional permaculture theory and emerging practices, between what permaculture has been and to where it can evolve.
The world is changing faster than our landscapes. To meet the challenges of tomorrow, we don't only need more gardens—we need a revolution in how we live, relate, and organize within our urban centres. The Hub will be a node in the network for developing a deep adaptation to the polycrisis we are living in.
!ENGLISH! THURSDAY / Opera Cafe - Philosophy Meetup: 19:30h - 21:00
Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup!
Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue?
If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you.
• WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT?
At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method
We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts.
The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives.
Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others.
A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning.
• WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP?
Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view.
Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups:
* What ideals are worth dying for?
* Why are we never satisfied?
* Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is?
* Is identity necessary?
* How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others)
* What is friendship?
• WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP?
Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory.
Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue.
The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.
