World Philosophy Day 2025: Unity in Diversity - Are there common answers to some universal questions?

To mark UNESCO's World Philosophy Day, we invite you to an evening dedicated to exploring some of the great questions about life that human beings have asked – and continue to ask – throughout history. Despite our cultural, historical and philosophical differences, some questions are universal, and the answers given by different philosophers and traditions often overlap.

The evening will consist of 6 concise presentations on some common philosophical themes:

• The Nature of Reality
• The Human Condition
• Ethics and Moral Conduct
• The Path to Transformation or Liberation
• The Meaning and Purpose of Life
• The Importance of Myths, Symbols and Rituals

Each presentation will last about 15-20 minutes and there will be a break in the middle (and also time after the talk) for food, drinks and philosophical conversation.

Admission: £15 (concessions £8) – buffet included.

Location: 19 Compton Terrace N1 2UN, next door to Union Chapel.
