Details

Decentralised, creative, multidisciplinary, participatory. PhilExpo22.ch – A week of Philosophy in Switzerland is a peculiar philosophy festival. The particularity of philExpo22 lies in its disseminate and synergetic character. The event brings together a multitude of initiatives that will take place from 6 to 15 May 2022 in all regions of Switzerland and (at least) in four languages.

During ten days, philosophical reflections and open discussions will reach many real and virtual places. Schools, universities, cultural centers, and philosophical practice studios will open their doors offering common spaces for learning, exchange and conversation. The purpose of this event is to bring critical and structured reflection back to the center of public discourse.

What do we want to know?

This question has been chosen as the thread for the many initiatives. Through an interdisciplinary approach, the event aims to draw attention to the relationships that philosophy has not only with the natural sciences and historical disciplines, but also with literature and the arts.

Thanks to the incredibly large and participative network partners, the program hosts a wide variety of initiatives: conferences, seminars, thematic workshops, round tables, as well as: philosophical cafés, literary walks, exhibitions, theater shows, performances and concerts.
