Training

 
 

We not only look different, each one of us is unique in our experience, our memories and associations. Dialogue can help us to connect, appreciate these differences, and even to enjoy challenges to our own thinking.

Our specialism is placing (philosophical) inquiry at the heart of your project conversations, whether you are a cultural organisation, a school or a company.

Our approach is to integrate the expansiveness of philosophical inquiry with processes & activities that generate new ways of looking at familiar ideas. Focussing on the articulation of ideas and listening to different perspectives we create a safe environment in which you can have the confidence to explore and experiment with ideas together.

We can design training specifically to your project needs. Drawing on thinking and making activities as well as a network of associates from different disciplines. 

Training can be in the form of a short taster, a longer introduction or a series of workshops to establish a more in depth understanding of philosophical conversation and its possibilities for integration into everyday thinking.

The whole thing has informed me as a practitioner and as a person. Using and trusting the silence and the art-works to evoke feelings and ideas is something I found useful, and a way in to trusting myself. Also mixing with other thinkers and artists, being in a creative environment, an open and trusting environment. You were able to make this happen in the training
