Welcome to the Forum

This Week

We’re currently on semester break. We look forward to meeting you all again in October! Details will be announced by the end of september.

Check out our conference “The Armchair on Trial” which took place from 9-11 July 2026. Find all relevant information here.

Who We Are

The Vienna Forum for Analytic Philosophy is a student organisation whose objective is to promote research, exchange and discussion among students and scholars.

For this purpose we organize regular meetings, lectures, workshops and conferences and foster national and international contact with individuals and groups interested in analytic philosophy.

What We Do

During the semester, we meet every Thursday, 18:30-20:00 (room TBA),  to discuss various papers related to our annual conference topic and also individual interests. (The reading will be announced via our Mailing List.) Afterwards we often go for drinks!

Find out about this past year’s topic here.

(Generally, the colloquium is an in-person event. If you would like to attend some specific sessions online, we are happy to set up a Zoom meeting for that session. Please contact veronika.lassl(Replace this parenthesis with the @ sign)univie.ac.at beforehand for the link.)

Additionally, the Internal Workshops and Open Sessions we organise give our members the chance to present their work and help each other through discussion and feedback.

Once a year, our Graduate Conference brings together philosophers from all over the world to discuss our annual topic. Check out this year’s conference: The Armchair on Trial
