Think Week 2011

We are delighted to announce that Think Week 2011 won the 'Best Reason Week' prize at the annual Convention of the AHS, the National Federation of Atheist, Humanist and Secular Student Societies. AC Grayling awarded the prize and recorded a short message which can be viewed here. Congratulations to all the organisers, speakers, sponsors, and not least attendees for making the week something truly special.

February 2011 marked the second annual Think Week - a week of high profile free public events running from the 21st to the 27th February. Think Week is organised by the student group Oxford Atheists, Secularists and Humanists, Oxford Humanists, Oxford Sea of Faith and Oxford Skeptics in the Pub. We are proud to welcome Oxford residents, Oxford University and Oxford Brookes students to our events. We welcome different points of view and entirely avoid base questions like 'does God exist'. Our events cover philosophy, poltics, science and a public performance by the BHA choir.

Think Week exists to show a wider audience the kind of discussion and debate that local student and town societies offer. The volunteers who organise the week are grateful to our Sponsors for 2011: the British Humanist Association, the Richard Dawkins Foundation, and the Friends of Think Week.

Refreshments will be provided at all events. Attendees are welcome to bring food to lunch time events. All events are open and un-ticketed - please simply turn up and enjoy.
