   3. Doctors and masters who have already graduated can also submit an abstract.

   4. Only one submission per author will be accepted.

      (b) The author of the work must make the presentation. If there is any impediment, the author must contact us by email (pesquisaemfilosofiaufsc@gmail.com) in advance to justify their absence and, if applicable, possible replacement by their co-author. The presentation certificate, however, will only be issued to the one who actually presents it.

   6. (a) The proposed text must contain necessarily: title, abstract (containing between 300 and 500 words), keywords (up until 3), main references (at least 3 and maximum 8). The text should be submitted necessarily in PDF format. The body of the text must be in Times New Roman, size 12, 1.5 line spacing and justified alignment.

      (d) In case the abstract does not meet the requirements (a), (b) and (c) listed above, it will be  disqualified by the Organizing Committee.

B. On evaluation and acceptance:

1. The abstracts that satisfy the above requirements will be evaluated under the blind peer review system by the Scientific Committee of the Colloquium. The following criteria will be used:

(a) pertinence and relevance of the philosophical contente; 

(b) domain, pertinence, and update on the bibliography;

(c) theoretical and methodological adequacy;

(d) discursive clarity, conciseness and argumentative capacity;

(e) In the event that the number of submissions exceeds the amount available, the final tiebreaker criterion will be the abstract’s greater consonance with the proposed general theme.

2. The number of abstracts accepted for communication will be limited depending on the number of spaces available for the event. If the number of abstracts received exceeds the number of vacancies, there will be chosen the abstracts with the best evaluation according to the Scientific Committee, in relation to the criteria. The selection process will seek to ensure a balanced distribution of the approved abstracts among the three major areas of philosophy: (i) Ethics and Political Philosophy; (ii) Ontology and Aesthetics; (iii) Epistemology and Logic.

3. Acceptance/rejection letters referring to abstracts submitted for communication will be sent until September 30th, 2025, to the e-mail address provided by the applicant in the abstract submission form.

C. Communication: 

1. The National and International Philosophy Research Colloquium will be held in person.

2. Each communicator will have up to 25 (twenty five) minutes to present their work and up to 10 (ten) minutes for debate.

3. If the communicator needs a screen projection resource for presentation (slides), he/she must send the file, in PDF format, to the event email (pesquisaemfilosofiaufsc@gmail.com), four days prior to the presentation, so that it can be configured by our technical team. Failure to send it within the deadline will result in the inability to project the file.

4. The Organizing Committee will contact those who had their abstracts approved to explain the details of where and how the communication dynamics will work.

5. In person communications will also occur between the 17th, 18th and 19th of November, at UFSC, Trindade campus.

D. Certification:

1. 1. The communication certification will only be granted to participants who present the work, whether authors or co-authors.

   2. Those who complete at least 50% of the event's workload in person or online will receive a certificate of participation.

   3. Certificates will be sent after the event, as requested by the Organizing Committee, following the priority list: lecturers, roundtable participants, members of the Scientific Committee, members of the Organizing Committee, mediators, communicators and audience.

E. Other topics:

1. 1. In order to facilitate the organization of the event, after the work has been approved, given the impossibility of presentation by the communicator, he/she must communicate his/her absence to the Organizing Committee in advance.

   2. The Organizing Committee will not accept submissions that do not follow all the above instructions and those on the submission form. The omitted or unforeseen cases will be analyzed and decided by the Organizing Committee.
