Скачать или смотреть André Almeida (Brazil) Creating an International Network on Philosophical Practice

The aim of this workshop will be to develop the basis of an international network of philosophical practitioners. The main objective of the network will be to share experiences and support one another (additional objectives can be proposed during the workshop). Working on the "how" is precisely the point of having this workshop. In terms of its structure the workshop will start with me presenting the basic idea and proposed objective of the network. I will then facilitate a discussion among participants, covering the essential aspects of what such a network would look like. I will start each 'topic' by sharing my thoughts as a basis to start the discussion (it is more productive if we start from something concrete rather than having a totally open discussion). I will nonetheless make it clear that participants have complete freedom to present and discuss their own suggestions on each respective topic. The network aspects to be covered during the workshop will be 'suggestions on the scope of the cooperation and possible activities', 'structure and dynamics of the network', 'additional ideas to be incorporated and further points of clarification' (giving room for participants to propose issues that I haven't anticipated), and 'practical steps towards the implementation of the network (which includes a discussion and a formal membership enrolment process).
