Volonteri su dobrodošli / Volunteers welcome

Stvaranje Simpozijuma filozofije Pharosa kao godišnjeg ili dvogodišnjeg događaja s posebnim ciljem poticanja otvorenog dijaloga između vizionara je puno posla, pogotovo s tako raznovrsnim programom. Jeste li zainteresirani za volontiranje i uživanje u vrlo zanimljivim razgovorima u otvorenom neformalnom okruženju? Javite nam ako želite koristiti iskustvo za svoj nastavni program!

Creating the Pharos Philosophy Symposium as an annual or biannual event with the specific goal of fostering open dialogue among visionaries is a lot of work, especially with such a diverse program. Are you interested in volunteering and enjoying some very interesting conversations in an open, informal setting? Let us know if you want to use the experience for your curriculum!
