IFILNOVA’s Lisbon Kant Group welcomes submissions of abstracts for its 2023 Graduate Conference on “Kant, Animal Moral Status, Environmental Ethics, and Vulnerability”, to be held on September 4th and 5th, 2023 at NOVA University Lisbon. The conference seeks to explore the relevance of Kant’s philosophy in addressing the ethical challenges posed by the current ecological crisis, the moral standing of non-human animals, and the question of vulnerability. The Lisbon Kant Group invites all scholars working in Kantian ethics, Environmental Ethics, Vulnerability, Aesthetics, and Animal Ethics, strongly encouraging submissions from early-career researchers, MPhil and PhD students.

To submit an abstract, please send an email to lkggc2023@gmail.com with two documents. The first document should contain a title and an abstract in English (no more than 500 words) prepared for blind review. The second document should include a brief biographical note (no more than 250 words).

Deadline for submission: June 1, 2023. Notice of acceptance: June 15, 2023.

If you wish to give a talk in a language other than English, an english version of the paper must be provided upon acceptance, to be projected during the presentation.
