Philosophy for Children (P4C)

BIJAK conducts P4C or Philosophy for Schoolchildren at all levels – Kindergarten, Primary (Elementary)
and Secondary (High School) – in Indonesia and other countries of the Asia-Pacific region.

We firmly believe that it is important, from a young age,
to stimulate the intellectual and ethical development of children who will be the leaders of tomorrow.

A philosophical education is 'useful and effective in ... building an individual's personality, fighting against feelings of failure in school or of personal failure, preventing violence, educating people to live together in and through debate and to be citizens in a democracy, linguistic mastery in the interaction between thought and language, learning to engage in personal, critical reflection,
independent judgement, communicating technical knowledge and self-discipline.'
