Come to the Onassis Library and create the ideal city with us, inspired by philosophy and history.

How different would the decisions of a philosopher to those of a politician be? Freedom, justice and respect are familiar principles, but can you find the proper words to describe them?

Having philosophy and history as major sources of inspiration, you will participate in experience-based games and you will arrive at the meaning these timeless concepts have for you. Learn about Plato’s Kallipoli and Solon’s tax system and create your own ideal city, in order to understand the way in which words become actions through political systems and politics.
