This vivid, bright book covers the successes generated in a community in Oldham from an IntroductionAn to approach called Philosophical Enquiry and the benefits of how thinking differently has positive knock on effects for many other projects. What if? Contour Housing Group having witnessed the wizard power of Philosophical Enquiry at Limeside Primary School, partnered with them to and Businesses Housing Groups Communities, Enquiry Philosophical Schools, for spread the effects further into the local neighbourhood. The method has not only improved children’s performance in the school it has also changed ways of working in both Contour and Limeside Primary School as well as in their approaches to community cohesion. The technique is already being actively championed in schools but never has it been used in a joined up approach across a single regeneration area such as here. The book is a living testament to what you can create through Philosophical Enquiry and is based on a philosophical question, “What if?” So, if you want to achieve real results ask yourself a question that doesn’t have a definitive answer – ask yourself “What if?” Philosopher What if? A book designed in partnership with Contour Housing Group, Limeside Primary School and friends.
