Lectures by public intellectuals for military personnel in training centers and military education institutions.
The Cultural Lyceum complements the training program for soldiers in military educational institutions and recruit training centers by engaging public intellectuals to work with the military. It aims to broaden their worldview, enhance their knowledge, and develop critical thinking skills.
CULTURE IMPROVES THINKING
The project's lecturers share their expertise concisely, without burdening the audience with academic formalities. The lectures are structured in a storytelling format, which helps engage the audience and encourages them to explore the topic further. To maintain interest, the speaker leaves books for the soldiers.
The lectures also encourage reading and help soldiers find answers to questions that concern them, such as "Why are we fighting?" and "What is the purpose of this struggle?" Literature broadens horizons, develops critical thinking, and shapes personal ideological convictions. This enhances motivation and improves the psychological and moral condition of the personnel.
