We are organizing a monthly(-ish) reading group. Each meeting, we will discuss a text on moral progress (very broadly construed). Texts can be from philosophy, cognitive science, moral psychology, evolutionary theory, whatever–as long as they are relevant to the topic of moral progress.

Meetings will take place online (on Teams). Interested in joining us? Contact Paul Rehren for more information. Everyone with an interest in the topic of moral progress is welcome!
