Function 8 is a collaborative endeavour undertaken by a collective of concerned citizens. We recognise the importance of fostering open dialogues about social, political, and economic encounters – both past and present – that contribute to the betterment of society.
The initiative draws its name, “Function 8,” from the analogy of the F8 key on computers, which serves as a reset to a secure and fundamental mode for troubleshooting. Similarly, Function 8 seeks to reexamine the fundamental pillars that underpin robust, just, and meaningful societies, as well as the integral role of democratic processes in attaining these ideals.
Through a series of seminars, talks, workshops, discussions, and introspections, Function 8 aims to rekindle the flame of critical thinking. It endeavours to invigorate the stagnation that can arise from an overly pragmatic emphasis on economic pursuits. In doing so, the initiative aspires to reclaim the inherent dignity and freedom that form the bedrock of human existence.
