Research Dialogues
Research Dialogues is a jointly organised discussion series by The Philosophy Project and Let’s Talk Tattva, envisioned as an active research community for early-career researchers in philosophy, particularly current PhD candidates.
The series invites both presenters and participants to engage in sustained, rigorous dialogue around ongoing research. Participation is premised on active engagement, including prior reading of circulated papers and meaningful contribution to discussions.
About the Dialogues
Young scholars often face limited opportunities to share work-in-progress in a supportive yet intellectually critical environment. By facilitating regular research sharing sessions, the Forum helps bridge this gap, empowering participants to refine their arguments, strengthen their methodological foundations, and build valuable professional networks.
Objectives
● To provide a recurring platform for philosophical research exchange
● To foster an inclusive and interdisciplinary community of early-career philosophers.
● To enhance the academic, analytical, and presentation skills of participants
● To encourage collaborative inquiry and future research partnerships
Format of Sessions
Each session will feature 1–2 research presentations (20 minutes each), followed by an open discussion period for feedback and questions. Presentations may include dissertation chapters, draft publications, methodological reflections, or conceptual explorations.
Target Participants
● PhD students in philosophy
● Scholars within 1–3 years of completing their PhD
● Individuals engaged in independent or interdisciplinary philosophical research
Expected Outcomes
● Improved quality of participants’ research outputs
● Strengthened intellectual community and mentorship networks
● Increased visibility for young philosophers’ work
