The fourteenth edition of the Oficina de Filosofia Analítica (OFA) will take place in Braga on 7 November 2025 at the University of Minho, hosted by the Center for Humanistic Studies of the University of Minho (CEHUM), a research unit of the School of Letters, Arts and Human Sciences (ELACH).
OFA is a graduate workshop in analytic philosophy (broadly construed), aimed at providing a stimulating environment for graduate students and young researchers (i.e., having obtained their PhD in the last 3 years) in the Portuguese philosophical community (i.e., either Portuguese or based in Portugal). The workshop is an initiative of the Portuguese Society for Analytic Philosophy (SPFA), also supported by the Portuguese Society of Philosophy (SPF), with its first edition taking place in 2006.
We invite submissions from all graduate students and young researchers who fulfill the criteria listed above. The working languages of the workshop are Portuguese and English. We invite submissions in the various areas of analytic philosophy including, but not limited to:
- Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art
- Critical Philosophy of Race
- Epistemology
- Ethics and Political Philosophy
- Feminist Philosophy
- Logic and Philosophy of Mathematics
- Metaphysics
- Philosophy of Language
- Philosophy of Mind
We particularly encourage submissions by philosophers from groups currently underrepresented in the discipline.
