Philosophical Perspectives on Disability: A Postgraduate Conference

The philosophical interest on the topic of disability is fairly new and, given this, a lot of issues are yet to be explored. The aim of this conference is to bring together postgraduate students who work in this area and who engage with questions such as: disabled or differently-abled? What is a disability? How should we think about disabilities? What is the relationship between a disability and the context in which it occurs? What are the metaphysically relevant aspects of disability? How should disability be seen from a political point of view? Is there an ethics of disability? What is the place of a phenomenology of disability? What ought to be changed in the way we see and consider disability? etc.  The event is free and open to all.
