The Elephant: On Moral Obligation

Small update: tickets are now pay at the door. 130 SEK, cash, revolut , or Swish. Book a “pay at the door” ticket in advance to secure your space.

The Elephant is a salon for the questions we usually skirt around. A space to think out loud together, disagree well, and resist the pull toward premature consensus.

This second session puts a question in the middle of the room that cuts close to the bone for many of us:

What is moral obligation? And is it up to us to do the most impactful thing we are capable of doing to eradicate suffering?

Dara and Eddy will hold the room together, from different places. The intention is to open the question rather than settle it.

The room will likely include people who work on exactly these questions professionally, alongside people meeting the question for the first time. The format is designed to hold both. Come as a person, not as your role. The salon is most alive when we set down the institutional voice and speak from somewhere closer in.

About The Elephant: a recurring salon hosted by Dara Morgana, using a facilitation approach called Differentiated Commitment, which makes room for real disagreement without collapsing into debate. You can read more here: https://daramorgana.substack.com/
