XXVII UFRN Philosophy Week

Considered one of the most traditional events at the Center for Human Sciences, Letters and Arts at UFRN, the XXVII Philosophy Week, held for almost thirty years by the Philosophy department, is the main space for the presentation of research developed by professors and students of this department (both undergraduate and postgraduate).
In addition to the internal public, the event receives participation from researchers from other institutions both in Rio Grande do Norte and other units of the federation.
The theme of this edition will be “Philosophy and the city”, which will seek to reflect on the “city” and its various conceptions, practices and expressions. It is a way of seeking elements that help answer the following questions: in what way, or ways, does philosophy fit into the context of the city and what are its modes of action?
The meeting takes place from April 17th to 20th. Registration to participate in the event will be open until April 17th and must be made through the Integrated Academic Activities Management System (Sigaa): https://sigaa.ufrn.br/sigaa/link/public/extensao/visualizacaoAcaoExtensao/91803989
