The Meetings on Ethics and Political Philosophy is an annual event organized by the Centre for Ethics, Politics and Society (CEPS) at  the  University of Minho (Braga). The Meetings have established in the years a reputation for providing scholars with an excellent opportunity to present both advanced and exploratory work to a welcoming audience (see previous editions). This year the Meetings will be organized around a series of panels focusing on the Center’s research agenda. In addition, they will host round tables, book symposiums, and an informal session to discuss opportunities for research and funding. Graduate students, junior researchers and senior scholars are welcome to submit their work.  
 
Starting this year, the Meetings will take place fully in person. Although we do not expect  disruptions due to the current pandemic, we will be monitoring possible restrictions on travel, and closer to the date consider hosting a number of presentations online. 
 
 
Invited speakers this year include.

• Julian Reiss (Johannes Kepler University Linz) 
• Julian Savulescu (University of Oxford) TBC 
• Karl Widerquist (Georgetown University)
