Philosopher Children! To become adults thirsting for peace … The Little Platons organize in the schools, workshops of philosophy to wonder about the essential questions …
Jean-Paul and Morina, a young Franco-Laotian couple, philosophers-artists and parents of 4 children, started from the observation that the dialogue from the angle of philosophy favors the construction of the person, teaches from a very young age child, how to resolve conflicts by constructive speech. This was the starting point for the creation of the “Little Platons”, a Publishing House not quite like the others, helded on different continents. In addition to their publications, philosophical workshops are organized in schools, but also in prestigious places such as the Théâtre National de l’Odéon in Paris (France). Every year, the “Little Platons” also take part in the meetings proposed by UNESCO on the International Philosophy Day.
