Mind Association

Description

Mind Association supports, funds and promotes philosophical research, and is responsible for the management and financial support of the quarterly journal, Mind.

The Association was established in 1900 on the death of Henry Sidgwick, who had supported Mind financially since 1891 and had suggested that after his death the society should be formed to oversee the journal. Since then, the Mind Association has grown to take on a wider role in the philosophical community.

Today, in addition to overseeing the work of the journal, the Association provides funding support c70-80 philosophy conferences annually; offers research funding awards to junior and senior scholars through the Mind Fellowships; and, from 2018, offers an annual Research Studentship award, open to recently awarded or near-completion PhDs. It also co-organises the largest annual philosophical gathering in the UK: The Joint Session of the Mind Association and Aristotelian Society.
