Indian Council of Philosophical Research (ICPR)
March 6-9, 2010 Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi


Indian Council of Philosophical Research (ICPR) has scheduled to organize Asian Philosophy Congress from March 6-9, 2010 at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi.

This is for the first time the Asian countries are brought to a common forum to organize exclusively a Congress of this kind. The aim of the Congress is to discuss thematic issues of philosophies of the Asian countries. Apart from Social and Cultural aspects, the object of the Congress is to look into the philosophical contributions through Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, Judaism and Zoroastrianism in all the Asian regions. It is hoped that such an endeavour will definitely strengthen the bilateral relationship with the nations of Asia and help to promote a unique bond between them through philosophical interaction.

It is expected to have many eminent philosophers, scholars from various fields and students from India and other parts of the Asian countries as well as scholars in Asian Philosophies from other continents, for the Congress.

We invite you to kindly participate in this Congress by your valuable presentation. The other details of the Congress can be obtained from the website:www.asianphilosophy.org and we will keep informing you our programme in due course.

Please complete the registration formalities as early as possible.

Your early response will be highly appreciated as we have to make arrangements for your accommodation.

With regards,

Yours sincerely,
