The Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences at the 9 Hills Festival<\/code><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another edition of the 9 Hills Festival in Che\u0142mno is behind us\u2014a unique cultural and educational event dedicated to bridging the worlds of culture, art, and science. Since 2016, the festival has transformed the historic courtyards, cellars, and squares of the Old Town into a vibrant space for dialogue and creative exchange. This year’s edition centered around nine unique historic landmarks of the city, with the historic Che\u0142mno Academy serving as its honorary patron. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the Year of Science Popularization, Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toru\u0144 (NCU) has taken an active role in this mission by creating a dedicated zone for festival guests in Che\u0142mno’s Old Town. Our Faculty had a strong presence at the 'NCU Science Courtyard’ (Naukowe Podw\u00f3rko UMK). During our 'Science Chats’ (Naukowe Pogaw\u0119dki), we set aside formal academic barriers in favor of open conversation, curious questions, and shared passion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Milena Celebudzka, MA (PhD candidate at the Department of Cognitive Science) took attendees on a journey through the fascinating workings of the human mind\u2014at the intersection of the brain, body, and technology\u2014explaining what happens inside our heads and why. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Marcin T. Zdrenka, PhD, DSc, Assoc. Prof. (Institute of Philosophy, host of the 'Philosophical Chatroom’ podcast) engaged festival-goers in an open discussion exploring fundamental philosophical questions. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    We extend our sincere thanks to our researchers for their openness and commitment, and to all participants for turning out in great numbers and engaging in inspiring discussions. See you at our next science outreach events beyond the university walls!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
