Café-philo at the Baur Foundation

February 12, 2025

On February 12, the third edition of the café-philo took place at the Baur Foundation. This year, final-year French secondary students from the Institut International de Lancy and museum visitors engaged in discussions on the broad theme of justice.

The discussion, led by the students under the guidance of their philosophy teacher Laurent Freland, sparked numerous debates among participants in the museum’s large first-floor hall.

I really enjoyed this year’s café-philo; all the workshops were very interesting and interactive, and I particularly liked debating with my classmates on the inspiring theme of justice. This event allowed us to explore aspects of our philosophy curriculum in a fun way and in a unique setting.

The afternoon was enriched by student presentations on their favorite pieces of art related to the theme of justice, selected from the Baur collections. At the end of the event, participants were invited to see these pieces for themselves.

The date is already set for a fourth café-philo with the Baur Foundation next year—stay tuned!
