About the conference
======================
The Indian Conference on Logic and its Applications (ICLA) is the primary conference of the Association for Logic in India (ALI [1]). It is a forum for bringing together researchers from a variety of fields in which formal logic plays a significant and often foundational role: Mathematics, Computer Science, Philosophy, Linguistics and Cognitive Science. A special feature of ICLA is the inclusion of studies in systems of logic in the Indian tradition, as well as historical research on logic. More about the conference and its earlier editions can be found at the ALI website [2].

DEADLINE FOR EARLY REGISTRATION: December 31, 2024 (AoE)
DEADLINE FOR LATE REGISTRATION: January 20, 2025 (AoE)
The 7th Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic will be held on 6-8 February 2025 at the Department of Philosophy, Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India. Association for Logic in India (ALI [1]) will be a co-organizer for this workshop.
The Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic (AWPL [2]) is a series of events initiated by a group of Asian logicians. Its first instalment took place at JAIST in Japan in 2012. The workshop's primary goal is to promote awareness, understanding, and collaboration among researchers in philosophical logic and related fields. It emphasises the interaction between philosophical ideas and formal theories. AWPL 2025 will happen just after ICLA 2025 [3], which would be held at Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata, India, during February 3-5, 2025.
