Welcome to illume! Are you a deep thinker? Do you have an insatiable curiosity to understand the inner workings of the human mind, society and world at large? Or perhaps you share the philosophical thought that an unexamined life is not worth living? If you answered yes then our warmest welcome to illume - a facilitated discussion forum that delves into life's unanswerable questions. Illume is a community initiative where dialogue is used to connect human hearts by way of the curious mind. It seeks to create a safe space where cohesive problem solving can be found amidst diversity of thought, signifying the complex ‘grey zone’ permeating the matters we discuss. It recognises diversity while embracing unity, as members come with the intention of being understood, while seeking to understand. With positive personal and societal change, comes an acknowledgment of difference. This starts with dialogue, which is catalysed by asking the 'illume' question - the type that allows for unique perspectives to merge and new-found insights to form. From exploring human nature, ethics and morality, the environment, society and government, religion and spirituality, science and technology all the way to the universe and reality – illume brings light to topics worth discussing. // Strangers become friends and friends become a community of thriving individuals with an enhanced skill set in leadership, emotional and cultural intelligence, interpersonal skills, personal development and of course, critical thinking. Put together, these skills propel us forward in our ever-globalising and diverse world. Partnering with organisations like WeWork Australia and UTS Startups, Illume hosts monthly in-person and online discussions forums.
