Virtue Ethics Workshop

International Virtue Ethics Workshop  

You are invited to participate in discussions of papers being prepared for a “Handbook of Virtue Ethics” to be presented at an authors’ workshop. We have avoided parallel sessions so as to provide time for in-depth discussion rather than having a lot of short papers.

The workshop will be held on September 21, 22 and 23 at the Deakin University, Melbourne Campus at Burwood (221 Burwood Highway, Burwood, Victoria 3125). Accommodation can be provided on campus.
