Dropping Knowledge needs your support
Dropping Knowledge is a non-profit organization supported by private foundations, socially responsible corporations and dedicated individuals. In every case, the relationship is reciprocally inspiring and beneficial.
On September 9, 2006, 112 scientists, social entrepreneurs, philosophers, writers, artists and activists from around the world will come together in Berlin, Germany, as guests of dropping knowledge.
Seated around a vast round-table in historic Bebelplatz square, these inspiring individuals, renowned for their lasting creative, social or humanistic contribution will engage with 100 questions from the global public
Dropping Knowledge is in the process of collecting questions from the global public that challenge conventional thinking, inspire conversation and encourage further inquiry.
For the 'Table of Free Voices' event in Berlin on September 9, 2006, dropping knowledge plans to bring together 112 inspiring individuals to drop their knowledge at 100 of these questions; the answers will be filmed, generating some 600 hours of footage.
The "ask yourself" campaign, Table of Free Voices and other dk activities exemplify the practice of asking and answering questions. Together, these activities pave the way for participation in the Living Library.
Ask Yourself Campaign
In a world of complexity and contradiction, apathy has become a sort of survival technique. How could you face the evening news without it? The apathy extends not only to those on the other side of the world but to our families, friends, neighbors, selves.
When was the last time you questioned the way things are?
The last time you refused to accept the unacceptable?
The last time you turned your apathy into activity?
Ask yourself.
The Dropping Knowledge Mission
Dropping Knowledge is a global initiative to turn apathy into activity. By hosting open conversations on the most pressing issues of our times, they foster a worldwide exchange of viewpoints, ideas and people-powered solutions. However knowledge is defined, by dropping it freely to others, by doing so we all gain wisdom.
