From September 9 to 11, 2026, the 6th European Experimental Philosophy Conference will take place at the University of Cagliari, Italy. Barbara Konat, Masaharu Mizumoto, Shaun Nichols, and Francesca Panzeri are confirmed as keynote speakers.
Note that there’s a separate call for a satellite workshop on “Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Linguistic Justice,” that will be held on September 8.
Proposals for talks, posters, and symposia can be submitted until May 1, 2026. The call reads:
The conference welcomes contributions from all areas of experimental philosophy and of its study. We welcome three kinds of contributions: talks, posters, and symposia.
Talks will be allocated 40-minute slots and should leave 20 minutes for discussion.
Posters will be allocated dedicated poster exhibit times.
Symposia will be allocated 2 hours and consist of three talks and a panel discussion involving the three speakers and possibly up to two further discussants, all addressing one overarching question or topic from different perspectives.
Deadline: May 1st, 2026

A corresponding author may be named as a co-author of joint papers submitted for talks by other corresponding authors.
