The Philosopher's Café provides a space where philosophical,
open-ended issues and topics receive attention.
The purpose of the café is to help transform
the world one conversation at a time.
Most topics relate to our place in the world as Global Citizens.
Beyond that, we will rely on the tools of social analysis
to explore a multiplicity of perspectives.
