The UO Community Philosophy Institute strives to connect philosophical reflection with the problems and issues faced by the community beyond campus. This year the Institute’s Homelessness Project will consider contemporary homelessness in Eugene and beyond. The Project organizers hope to correct ignorance and confront denial about homelessness by recognizing human dignity through academic study, art, video, photography, the exploration of effective civic and political programs, course content, and informational, philosophical, and roundtable discussion events.
