What Is The BIG Idea?

"Festival of Dangerous Ideas" is Returning To Sydney 17 - 18th September 2022


"IT'S NOT JUST DANGEROUS IDEAS, IT'S DANGEROUS REALITIES."

In a conversation moderated by Simon Longstaff, 
historians Joya Chatterji and Stephen Fry discuss whether the age of Enlightenment is truly coming to an end. 

They share varying Enlightenment narratives that cross geographical, cultural and class borders and challenge the attempt to define an era of history as linear, with a definitive start and end point.

Joya Chatterji is a Professor of South Asian History.

Stephen Fry is an English actor, screenwriter, author, playwright, journalist, poet, comedian, television presenter and film director.

Produced by 
The Ethics Centre and Audiocraft.

FODI Celebrating 10 Years in 2020 - The Story So Far

Why have a festival of dangerous ideas? The world has changed, is changing. To survive, we must adapt. Go beyond the hype. The Festival of Dangerous Ideas is the original disruptive festival. It is a platform to share provocative ideas that interrogate how we got to this point, and where we want to go next. We need to be curious – as individuals and as a society. The world we are making and unmaking, is a reflection of ourselves. Do we like what we see? Let’s arm ourselves with information. Challenge ourselves and each other with respect. Make space for difficult discussions. It’s time to get uncomfortable.
