AWPL 2027
Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic

The Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic (AWPL) is a series of events initiated by a group of Asian logicians. Its first installment took place at JAIST in Japan in 2012. The workshop's primary goal is to promote awareness, understanding, and collaboration among researchers in philosophical logic and related fields. It emphasises the interaction between philosophical ideas and formal theories.
