We are PEiPL (Philosophical Engagement in Public Life), a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering philosophical thinking in our communities. Our mission is to inspire critical and creative thinking, helping individuals, particularly children, become lifelong learners and active participants in society.
Who we are
PEiPL is a dynamic nonprofit organization founded to bring the power of philosophical thinking into everyday life. Our journey began in 2017 and it has since grown into a vibrant community of philosophers, educators, and curious individuals committed to making philosophy accessible and engaging for all. Through a variety of programs, we help people of all ages develop the skills to think critically, communicate effectively, and contribute meaningfully to society.

PEiPL is currently undergoing a period of transformation as we prepare the future of our programs. While our camps will be taking a short break, we’re thrilled to announce that Eurekamp Oz! will be back in 2026—refreshed, reimagined, and more inspiring than ever!
But that’s not all—we’re also cooking up a range of new activities and initiatives beyond the camps to keep our community connected, curious, and engaged. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months!
