CFIC is launching a series of town hall gatherings. Once in a month, starting on 11th of May 2025 we will gather on Zoom to discuss a selected topic relevant to our society and our democracy.

These meetings are not planned to be webinars; the format will be a moderated discussion in which the attendees debate and discuss. Our objective is to nurture a culture of respectful and open-minded discussion and by doing so fostering a democratic and participatory citizenship.

Topics are selected by polling CFIC members and the wider public. A background document on the selected topic will be available for download from the CFIC website a week ahead of the Town Hall meeting.

Town Hall: June 15, 2025, 8pm EDT

Topic: Practical Epistemology

We will discuss epistemology, starting with a brief overview of the philosophical concept, then continuing with a discussion of the practical implications.

Here are some question we will address:

  • What is Epistemology?
  • What can we truly know?
  • How do we acquire knowledge?
  • What distinguishes belief from knowledge?

Please join us for the next Town Hall meeting on the 15th of June on Zoom at 20:00 EDT

CFI Community, critical thinking
