JPIC supports the goals of the Gendered Conference Campaign (GCC). In particular, in selecting presentations (papers or panels) the JPIC 2019 Program Review Committee considers whether steps have been taken to support the GCC, as evidenced by the recruitment and participation of women (51% of the planet’s population) and members of other historically under-represented and excluded groups.

Please submit papers, panel proposals, and any inquiries to the JPIC 2019 Program Review Committee chair, Dr. David C. Ring (Orange Coast College Philosophy department Emeritus) at dr.davidcring@gmail.com

Submission deadline: October 1, 2019, but please submit earlier if possible.

Papers themselves when presented at JPIC 2019 should not exceed 3,000 words and should be accompanied by a 100-word abstract.
