We are very pleased to announce that the Summer School \;&lsquo\;Moral Progress and Moral Change&rsquo\; \;will take place from \;June 16 &ndash\; 18 2026 \;at the \;Institute of Philosophy in Zagreb.
\nThe program is designed for a maximum of 20 PhD candidates\, advanced MA students\, or early career researchers working in the philosophy of moral progress and moral change broadly construed. Our summer school will encompass debates about the normative criteria of moral progress\, the empirical case for ongoing moral regress\, the relationship between social identities and social norm change\, and the relationship between technological and moral change.
\nThe summer school will feature keynotes from:
\n&bull\; Agnes Tam (University of Calgary)
\n&bull\; Victor Kumar (Boston University)
\n&bull\; John Danaher (University of Galway)
\nIn addition to keynote lectures and student presentations\, we will also have a few presentations on moral progress and moral change from scholars in the regional research community. However\, our key focus is on allowing plenty of time for participants to discuss issues related to the philosophy of moral progress and moral change and make fruitful research connections among a group of scholars with related interests.
\nHow to apply: Our program has space for a limited number of student presentations (20 mins talk\, followed by 10 mins Q&\;A). If you would like to present at the Summer School\, please send an anonymised abstract of up to 500 words to Mia Biturajac at \;mbiturajac@ifzg.hr \;by \;12 April 2026. In the body of your email\, please include your name and your institution. Note that it is not necessary to present in order to attend.
\nIf you have any additional questions\, you can also contact Mia via the email address above.
\nThe attendance fee is \;&euro\;100. Our three-day program will include lunch each day\, and a dinner one evening to which all participants are invited.
\nThis Summer School is supported by the Institute of Philosophy\, and by the Croatian Science Foundation-funded projects \;MoPIC \;and \;AIAJ.
\nBest wishes from the Summer School Organising Committee\, Mia Biturajac\, Charlie Blunden\, Petar Bodlović\, Nino Kadić\, Marco Tassella\, Monika Zeba
