EXISTETIAL QUESTIONS CONFERENCE AT THE KYIV SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS

About Event:

During existential moments in human history, philosophy has served as a refuge, a place of retreat that connects reflection across centuries, whatever the conditions. To practice philosophy in moments of crisis is to connect with our common humanity.

This conference invites some of the world's leading philosophers to present fundamental ideas of their work to a Ukrainian audience, to think together about issues that bind us together, rather than those that tear us apart.
