with Philosophers in Istanbul (2008-2017)
14 Conferences, 2 Workshops
I created and directed with Philosophers in Istanbul, a special conference series bringing renowned philosophers to Turkish audiences. I designed each programme, hosted the philosophers, presented a paper at every edition, and chaired the open sessions. Several were held with the Institut Français d'Istanbul.
