Who is this for?

Educators who want to enrich and challenge their students. Whether you’re integrating ethics into your instruction, or have a dedicated philosophy curriculum — help them ask better questions, explore different ways of thinking, and express ideas clearly and critically.

Who are we?

AIIA iAward Winner

Starting as two Year 7 students debating ethics, expanding into a 60-student club, during COVID we digitalised into applied-ethics simulations. Our inaugural war ethics run had an electric reception, featuring plastered over school hallways.

This award-winning project, reached the SMH , and sparked nationwide school requests. Now at UTS Startups, our mission is making critical thinking and communication accessible and engaging for all students.
