Praxis-in-Progress

April 12, 2025 11:00am

 

Praxis-in-Progress is a work-in-progress seminar conceived as a laboratory for Master and PhD students, as well as faculty members and researchers at different stages of their careers, who wish to present advances of their work and receive feedback. The sessions take place on Mondays from 11h00 to 12h30 (Lisbon Time — GMT+0) according to availability and host a short talk or paper presentation (around 20 minutes) followed by discussion in a relaxed and stimulating environment. We gladly welcome topics within the wide range of branches of practical philosophy broadly speaking and/or related study areas, prefereably working in theories and methodologies within the continental tradition (see our “About Praxis” section here).

Interested in participate? Write an e-mail to: Dr. Ricardo Mendoza-Canales (at [email protected])
