Day Events

World Philosophy Day

World philosophy is not just abstract thinking, but also the art of asking questions about the nature of reality, knowledge, values and the meaning of life. Philosophy helps us understand the world around us and reflect on our own beliefs. It allows us to analyze the history and cultures that shape our identities. On this day, philosophers hold seminars, discussions, conferences and other events to discuss their ideas and problems facing humanity. It is also a great opportunity for ordinary people to learn more about philosophy, ask their questions and be inspired by the discussions. International Philosophy Day reminds us of the importance of dialogue, thought and discussion. Philosophy is not limited to the walls of academic institutions; it is part of our daily life. It is important to remember that philosophy can help us better understand ourselves and the world in which we live, and promote more harmonious coexistence. Thus, International Philosophy Day encourages us to maintain dialogue and promote exploration of fundamental questions that concern us all.

International Day for Tolerance

This day was an opportunity to discuss what measures can be taken to strengthen tolerance and reduce conflicts based on cultural, religious and ethnic differences. Tolerance is the ability to accept and respect differences in all their manifestations. It not only relates to cultural aspects, but also to beliefs, lifestyle, identity and what makes each person unique. In a world where many differences come together, tolerance is a fundamental element of peace and justice. International Day for Tolerance provides an opportunity for people around the world to express their support for tolerance. This is a moment to discuss the problems associated with intolerance, xenophobia and discrimination, and to find ways to overcome these phenomena.

The International Day for Tolerance reminds us that we live in a world where there are many different opinions and points of view. It is important to strive for dialogue rather than conflict, and to look for ways to cooperate and agree. Tolerance is the key to peace, justice and sustainable development of our planet. This day encourages each of us to reflect on our role in building a more tolerant and respectful society. We can make the world a better place, starting with how we view diversity and how we ourselves practice tolerance in our daily lives.
