This month’s workshop explores DOING THE RIGHT THING.

How do we decide what is the right thing to do? Is there a right way to decide how to be right? Is it okay to do the wrong thing? Can doing the wrong thing be a good thing? Can doing the right thing be the wrong thing to do?

Right! This time we will be thinking about ethical decision-making, so make your choice: will you come or not? Which would be right and which would be wrong? Either or neither? To find out, come along!

 

The Philosophy Foundation is a charity that aims to foster a culture of curiosity and wonder through philosophy. They believe that philosophy is not just a subject, but a way of life that can help people of all ages and backgrounds to think more clearly, creatively, and critically.
