About the Status Quo Project

The Status Quo Project is a not-for-profit organization committed to fostering a dynamic and inclusive place for youth to explore philosophy. We seek to empower students to critically engage with diverse perspectives and delve into the profound questions that shape our world. At the heart of our mission is the dedication to increasing the accessibility of ideas, particularly those that have historically been underrepresented in academic discourse. Our commitment to inclusivity extends to our global reach as we aim to create a truly international community of philosophers.
