Environmental Philosophy
Summer School
2-8 July 2024
Hejnice Monastery,
Czech Republic
Nestled amidst the picturesque landscapes of the Czech Republic, the Hejnice Monastery provides an idyllic setting for a summer school experience like no other.
The Summer School is ideal for PhD students who are already working on their dissertation on an environmental topic, but advanced Masters students are also welcome.
Explore issues related to nature, technology and society
The Environmental Philosophy Summer School promises an intellectually enriching experience with a lineup of distinguished speakers, including Vincent Blok and Mark Coeckelbergh. The lectures will delve into a myriad of pressing environmental issues, such as the problem of normative foundations of sustainability, principles of justice in decarbonization and environmental governance, environmental democracy, the myth of pristine nature, or the value of darkness in light pollution.
In addition to these thought-provoking sessions, participants will have the unique opportunity to explore firsthand the environmental challenges at the Polish coal mine Turov and go on a scenic walk in the Jizera Mountains.
Organised by the University of Pardubice and the CETE-P
The Environmental Philosophy Summer School is organized by the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies at the University of Pardubice in collaboration with the Center for Environmental and Technology Ethics, affiliated with the Czech Academy of Sciences.
