14 January 2023, UNESCO World Logic Day 2023

UNESCO proclaimed 14 January to be World Logic Day, a global day of supporting the development of logic through teaching and research, as well as to public dissemination of the discipline.

The coordination of World Logic Day 2023 is -- for the third time -- in the hands of the Conseil International de Philosophie et des Sciences Humaines (CIPSH) and its member organization, the DLMPST/IUHPST. We would like to encourage logicians all around the world to organize (possibly small) events in close proximity to 14 January 2023 to celebrate this day. Events will be listed on the CIPSH website.

The Covid pandemic still has an effect on international travel and the question whether in person meetings are appropriate; in addition, we have learned over the last years that online meetings are easier to finance, better for the environment, and considerably more inclusive. As a consequence, we should like to ask all organisers to weigh pros and cons of planning in person events, purely online events, or hybrid events before making an announcement. Note that online and hybrid events have the advantage of allowing easy access of people from around the world.
