School of Philosophy in the Classical Tradition
At the heart of the activities of New Acropolis is its School of Philosophy, which we understand as a way of life, i.e. a means of access to spiritual knowledge and to individual and collective realization.
This School of Philosophy has a Program of Studies which is common to all countries and is taught in successive levels. It provides an updated version of the traditional knowledge of East and West, which, in accordance with classical humanism, combines the study of sciences, arts, religions and philosophies in a comparative way.
