2026 Online Symposium of the Network of Asian Environmental Philosophy
Theme: Mud, Islands and Ocean
Dates: November 5 (Thu) – 6 (Fri), 2026
No conference fee, participation is free.
Mud, islands and ocean are places of mixture and changes. Animals and people leave traces in the mud. The NAEP symposium 2026 dives into blue humanities and interrogates the fringes between worlds and aims to explore views in terms of fluidity and process. In the mud, soil and water shift forms and transform. Boundaries are not clearly apparent. Environmental philosophy forces us to reconsider certain assumptions about clear boundaries delimiting and isolating things, and mud invites us to this journey.
Language: The primary language of the conference is English. We aim to be non-native friendly, so we make it a rule that we speak slow and accessible English. If you would like to present in a language other than English, please contact us.
Organisation: Laÿna Droz, Orika Komatsubara, Dipanwita Pal, Concordia Marie Lagasca-Hiloma, Romaric Jannel, Spriha Roy, Felipe Cuervo, Thiri May Aye, Phyo Susan
