The Institute for Ethics & Society at The University of Notre Dame Australia is delighted to host the 2020 Notre Dame School of Virtue & Character.
Held over two weeks (29 September – 8 October 2020), the conference provides participants with the opportunity to deeply engage with new research on the topic of cultivating good character. The Notre Dame School of Virtue & Character features six keynote sessions, each running for 1.5 hours. The sessions are structured around a pre-read paper, and provide participants with the opportunity to engage directly with the speakers in a rigorous discussion of their work. We welcome applications for participation via email. Due to COVID-19, the conference will be held on Zoom. The conference will focus on two topics: 1. New accounts of overlooked virtues and vices, and 2. Practical questions related to how institutions can be designed to foster virtue. The six keynote speakers are: · Professor Heather Battaly (University of Connecticut) · Professor Christian B. Miller (Wake Forest University) · Professor C. Stephen Evans (Baylor University) · Assistant Professor Michael Lamb (Wake Forest University) · Professor John Lippitt (Director, Institute for Ethics & Society) · Anne Snyder (Editor, Comment Magazine) More details about the conference: https://www.notredame.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0022/148513/Notre-Dame-School-of-Virtue-and-Character.pdf More details about the Institute for Ethics & Society: https://www.notredame.edu.au/research/institute-for-ethics-and-society/home For details on how to apply, please email: Tim Smartt ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) or Dr Annette Pierdziwol ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>).
