NEPES

2026 Conference

It is with great excitement that NEPES will be hosting the Annual Conference in 2026 at Teachers College, Columbia University on October 10th (Saturday). The Call For Proposals draws our collective attention to the theme of Imagination, Attention, and Aesthetic Education. We look forward to reviewing your proposals and gathering in October for what promises to be a special occasion for thoughtful scholarship, constructive dialogue, and community engagement. We seek papers from scholars of any rank or career stage that respond to the theme, and welcome both specific or broad interpretations. In addition, and alternatively, we invite paper and panel proposals on any topic that deepens our collective understanding of philosophy and education. Submissions are due on June 7th. 

View the full call for papers here.

Please direct any questions to NEPES Vice President and Program Chair Sara Hardman (seh2196@tc.columbia.edu).
