The conference explores “experimenting philosophy of religion” as a field, method, and performative mode of exchange. It aims to engage with pressing contemporary challenges—particularly in politics, ecology, and aesthetics—by fostering exploratory, unconventional, and interdisciplinary approaches. While the focus lies on philosophy of religion, contributions from related disciplines such as sociology, political science, and cultural studies, artistic and other related disciplines are very welcome. We especially welcome contributions that work with innovative methods, address marginal questions, or challenge established disciplinary boundaries. The conference is structured around three thematic panels: - Politics & Society - Ecology & Nature - Arts & Aesthetics Early career researchers are particularly encouraged to apply. Presentations will be 20 minutes long, followed by a response and discussion. *Submission details and guidelines* in the full Call for Papers can be found here <https://vdtr.univie.ac.at/activities/public-events>. *Deadline for submissions:* 5 June 2026 *Notification of acceptance:* 30 June 2026 Please send submissions to: xphilrel.2026(a)univie.ac.at If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at any time.
