The International Network of Women Philosophers, sponsored by UNESCO, will hold its First Assembly at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris (France) on 14 and 15 December 2009. It will gather more than 70 women philosophers from all over the world.
The Network currently includes more than 1,300 members from all regions. Their activities reflect the great diversity of practices that involve philosophy.
On the first day of the Assembly, which will be opened by Pierre Sané, UNESCO’s Assistant Director-General for Social and Human Sciences, participants will examine the Network’s structure, its purpose and its plans for the future. They will go on to discuss major contemporary issues from a philosophical perspective.
A debate on the subject “What do men philosophers think about women philosophers?” will take up the second day. |
