ABOUT
Philoxenia borrows its name from the Ancient Greeks – merging 'philos' (love) and 'xenos' (stranger or foreign). Rooted in age-old wisdom, it means 'love for strangers'.
Loving the stranger has become one of the most fundamental challenges of our time. Human evolution has thrived on collaboration and shared expertise. However, as the world grows ever more interconnected, real dialogue is fading away. In a time where our attention is commodified and fragmented, echo-chambers reinforce existing beliefs and polarization intensifies. Public discourse is at risk, populism is on the rise, technology is evolving at an unprecedented rate, and we are far away from world peace.
Join Philoxenia, reborn for today's challenges: A modern-day agora fostering open dialogue. Here, diversity is not just welcomed; it is vital to fuel a system where meaningful connections steer collaboration and pave the way for societal progress. Through a variety of initiatives, Philoxenia seeks to pioneer the future of learning, advocating for a more humane world.
