Philopolis is taking place at the end of the month!

The thirteenth edition of Philopolis will take place on February 23rd , 24th and 25th 2024 at McGill University.

Philopolis is an annual three-day conference organized by philosophy students from McGill,
Concordia, UQAM and UdeM whose central goal is to facilitate exchanges between the grand
public, students, professors and researchers from all fields. Through more than 60 activities,
panels, discussions and debates, Philopolis is a unique occasion for groups that are too often
separated to share their ideas and offers a single opportunity for those who want to initiate
themselves to philosophical research.
