TALK: Rachel Ankeny and Audrey Henry: 'Evolving Models for Co-Production of Marine Science Knowledge in South Australia' (October 20th, 12:30-2pm CEST)

by Martin Kusch

Dear All, The Philosophy Department of the Central European University, the Institute Vienna Circle and the Unit for Applied Philosophy of Science and Epistemology (of the Department of Philosophy of the University of Vienna) are jointly organizing a series of talks this term: https://wienerkreis.univie.ac.at/news-events/apse-ceu-ivc-talks-wintersemes… The next talk will be Thursday, October 20th, 12:30-2pm CEST. The talk will be online only. The speakers will be Rachel Ankeny and Audrey Henry (University of Adelaide). The title of the talk is: 'Evolving Models for Co-Production of Marine Science Knowledge in South Australia' (Abstract below) Online access (without registration): univienna.zoom.us/j/61475205762 You can also log into our meetings through the Zoom application (rather than by clicking the link above), by using the following credentials: Meeting-ID: 614 7520 5762 Password: 264065 No RSVP or registered accounts are required for online attention, it's enough to click on the link and enter your name. Chrome or Firefox browsers work best. Abstract: Australia presents a complex example of a locale where there is increasing awareness about the moral and legal requirements associated with benefit sharing and acknowledgment of traditional knowledge, particularly Indigenous knowledge sources. After a brief overview on the history and current status of Indigenous communities in Australia, we present a series of vignettes associated with marine research in South Australia where different types of engagement or collaborations have occurred between academic and governmental researchers and local Indigenous communities. We use these vignettes to problematise typical Western scientific methods of giving credit and including local and traditional knowledges as part of knowledge production methods in scientific research, and explore a broader range of options such as diverse forms of benefit sharing that in turn can support a more robust vision of what is epistemically and morally relevant in these domains. Everyone welcome! On behalf of the organizers, Martin Kusch --------------------------------------- Prof. Martin Kusch (he/they) Univ. of Vienna, Dpt. of Philosophy https://martinkusch.wixsite.com/website

by Institut für Philosophie

Philosophy as Conceptual Engagement: The Concepts We Have and the Concepts We Want 8 PhD- Positions The FWF doc.funds project PACE at the University of Vienna (pace.phl.univie.ac.at/ <http://pace.phl.univie.ac.at/>) is filling up to 8 predoctoral positions at the Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy (VDP, vd-philosophy.univie.ac.at/ <http://vd-philosophy.univie.ac.at/>). PACE examines questions about the subject matter and the methods of philosophy, exploring in particular the hypothesis that philosophy often involves conceptual engagement (see project description <https://pace.phl.univie.ac.at/pace-the-project/>). The successful candidate(s) will enroll in the University of Vienna doctoral programme in philosophy and join the VDP. They can pursue a doctoral research project in any area of philosophy, using any philosophical method. They will, as part of the project PACE, be expected to conduct their research with special attention to their own method, and also to participate in discussions on philosophical method. The main duties are: * to develop a PhD research plan and have it approved by the doctoral board within the first 12 months. * to sign a supervision agreement within the first 12-18 months, which sets out the trajectory to successful completion of the research. * to complete some coursework in line with the doctoral programme (at least 24 ECTS). * to participate actively in VDP and PACE research activities. * to contribute to the organization of VDP and PACE events, such as seminars, workshops, conferences, and summer schools. * to complete and submit the doctoral thesis within four years. There are no teaching duties associated with these positions but there will be some opportunities to teach certain undergraduate courses in the department (for extra pay). These are four-year positions with a gross monthly salary of around 2458 Euros. In Austria 14 monthly salaries are paid out in a year. (Net salaries can be calculated on this page: onlinerechner.haude.at/BMF-Brutto-Netto-Rechner/. <https://onlinerechner.haude.at/BMF-Brutto-Netto-Rechner/>) Funding is available for conference trips and stays abroad. The contracts are initially for two years and will be renewed for another two years after successful completion of the first two years, including approval of the research plan. Applications should contain the following documents (in pdf-format) and should be sent by 31 May 2023 to Raphael Aybar, the VDP-coordinator, on vd.philosophy(a)univie.ac.at: 1. a cover letter (anonymized) mentioning two potential supervisors from the VDP faculty <https://vd-philosophy.univie.ac.at/people/faculty/>, including at least one from among the PACE faculty <https://pace.phl.univie.ac.at/faculty/>. 2. a CV (anonymized), containing at least the following rubrics: academic qualifications, areas of expertise and competence, publications (if any), presentations (if any), admin/organizational experience (if any), career breaks (if any). 3. a PhD research proposal (anonymized), of no more than three pages length. 4. one or two writing samples (anonymized), of a maximum of 5000 words length each. 5. degree certificates and academic transcripts. 6. a document containing identifying information as well as contacts for two people who can provide a letter of reference (letters of reference will be requested only after shortlisting). NB: documents 1–4. must be anonymized in order to allow for an anonymous first round of selection. Selection Process: We expect to shortlist candidates for interview by 15 June and hold online interviews on 5, 6 and 7 of July 2023. IMPORTANT. If your application is successful and you accept a position at the University of Vienna, you will need to move to Vienna before you can start the employment. You will need to submit degree certificates and transcripts that have the required legalization. Degree certificates or transcripts that are not in German or English must be translated into one of these two languages. The translation must be done by a court sworn translator after the documents have been legalized. Any questions can be directed to the VDP coordinator Raphael Aybar at vd.philosophy(a)univie.ac.at and will if necessary be forwarded to the relevant person. --
