Next UPsalon Stammtisch!


Stammtisch #4

First Meeting Critical Anti-Racism Working Group


When? June 27th at 6 PM

Where? Tunnel Vienna, Florianigasse 39, 1080 Wien

What?

UPsalon would like to cordially invite you to our Stammtisch or "regular's table"!

This time, we will use the Stammtisch for a first meeting of the critical Anti-Racism Working Group at the Institute of Philosophy. We discuss concerns, ideas and best practices at other departments such as Racism-Critical working group at the department of African Studies, and set up goals and aims for our own working group. You can find more information of the group here: https://afrika.univie.ac.at/en/about-us/wg-against-racism/

In line with this, we invite you to join us for a first meeting and discussion organised with UPSalon. The working group highly encourages participation from all levels at University. This will be a yet informal group of people who care about and are interested in taking up the topic of racism in the university ecosystem. This working group is concerned with the kinds of work, ideas and activities that improves awareness, enhances visibility, initiates discussions and interventions among all levels and practices of the institution.

UPsalon are a group of Master-level, doctoral and post-doctoral researchers; the initiative aims at creating a space and community in Vienna where underrepresented philosophers – such as women, gender minorities, racialised minorities, socioeconomically disadvantaged people and people disadvantaged by society – can connect on a regular basis. For more information, check out our website!

People from all stages in their philosophical career are welcome, and we are especially excited to meet those who we have not yet met.

We are very much looking forward to meeting all of you!
Do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions you may have.
