IAPG and NKUA-APRL signed a MoU
The aim of the MoU is to cooperate on developing empirical and/or theoretical research in the areas of geoethics and bioethics, and to coordinate activities aimed at promoting the discussion on the ethical, social and cultural implications of geosciences and biosciences.
The MoU expresses a mutual desire to cooperate on a range of themes in the field of Geoethics, Bioethics, Environmental Ethics, Philosophy of Geosciences, and Sustainable Development. It helps to assure a continued IAPG – NKUA-APRL cooperation and coordination on issues of common interests, in particular, the following:
- theoretical aspects of geoethics;
- analyses of geoethical and environmental problems and dilemmas, also through case-studies;
- relationships between bioethics and geoethics;
- co-organization of scientific events;
- production of relevant publications.
- extend mutual invitations for academic purposes.
Both organizations will establish a liaison to ensure good information flow and cooperation.
The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens Applied Philosophy Research Laboratory (http://en.philosophylab.philosophy.uoa.gr/) was established in 1999 as an autonomous unit in the Department of Philosophy of the University of Athens. The initial purpose of the Lab's establishment was to facilitate research in the area of applied philosophy and provide teaching support to students and faculty members in both graduate and post-graduate level of studies. The Lab is also committed to conduct empirical and/or theoretical research in all areas of philosophy, with particular focus on Ethics, Metaethics and Applied Ethics. To this purpose the Lab seeks to foster collaborations with other Laboratories, Research Centers or Units, as well as with international organizations and societies. The Lab seeks to further and convey knowledge on areas of philosophical research by means of hosting post-graduate programs of study, publishing works of original philosophical research as well as journals, and organizing conferences.
