What is ESWIP and what do we do?
We are a professional organization, affiliated with the larger SWIP (Society for Women in Philosophy) community, and also the APA (American Philosophical Association). Every year, we elect by committee and honor a "Distinguished Woman in Philosophy" at the APA meeting, and gather for a reception there as well. In addition, we hold a conference in the spring, to which all are welcome to submit. Past conference themes have included the meaning of hope, and feminist pedagogy.  We aim to be an inclusive and encouraging group that fosters growth and support for women and feminist-friendly scholars in our field.
