SUMMARY:Practical Philosophy Meetup - Dubai 🇦🇪
LOCATION:Istanbul Flower Restaurant
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 18% · why: lots of
  people going\n\n🏛️ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?\nPractical Philosop
 hy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an oppor
 tunity to dive deep on a topic\, practice communicating\, and building a c
 ommunity. All with no ‘official’ philosophy knowledge required! 😎\n\nPract
 ical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible 
 to all\, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choos
 e a topic\, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critica
 l thinking and communication as we explore that topic.\nThe goal is to hel
 p develop our Critical Thinking\, Communication\, and Community 🙌\n\n📓 HOW
  DOES IT WORK?\nEach week\, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic fo
 r the week is shared\, generally in the Whatsapp group\, along with jump-o
 ff points to get the conversation going.\n\n🧧PRICING?\nPractical Philosoph
 y Club is FREE to attend! We just request that that you buy a beverage or 
 food item as our venue requires it to give us a private room.\n\n💛 WHAT PE
 OPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY\n🗣 “I feel like Philosophy Club helps 
 someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives whi
 le not promoting what’s right and wrong” - Ekam\n🗣 “I got hooked from day 
 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel
  it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives a
 nd increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who
  might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to
  have openness and mind flexibility.” - Daniel\n\n🤓 FAQ\n\nWhat will we ta
 lk about? What's the topic?\n\nThe topic for the week is shared every Sund
 ay in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section o
 n this event page as well but if you don’t see it\, the topic and the jump
 -off points will be in our Whatsapp.\n\nDo I need to study or read anythin
 g to attend?\n\nNo preparation is necessary. This isn’t a study of other t
 hinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic\, not what an old 
 philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school
  of thought to share\, throw it on the table and we’ll discuss it\, but it
 's not required.\n\nIs there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosop
 hy is focused on?\n\nThe goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic disc
 ussions\, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this\, we wan
 t to hear from every realm of thought\, and don't study a particular schoo
 l.\n\nIs it mostly men that attend?\n\nSurprisingly\, no! Although philoso
 phy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys\, o
 ur Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders\, and 
 we don’t meet in any dark rooms.\n\nCan I come alone?\n\nOf course you can
 \, we encourage it :)\n\nCan I be late?\n\nPlease don't be! We do have a 1
 5 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out
 \, but after that if you arrive too late\, it disrupts the flow of the con
 versation.\n\nWhere do you meet?\n\nThe location is posted in Meetup and o
 ur Whatsapp group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you joi
 n the Whatsapp group! If you want to know what other cities have a Practic
 al Philosophy Club\, you can see our chapters on our website.\n\n🤝POLICY\n
 \nTo respect our members privacy\, we ask that no one privately message a 
 member without first getting explicit consent. (This looks like speaking i
 n person and being asked to message privately.) Contacting or texting othe
 r participants without prior consent is not permitted and may result in re
 moval from the group. Practical Philosophy reserves the right to enforce t
 his policy at its discretion to maintain a safe and respectful environment
