Philosophy of Language and Mind

PLM is a network of philosophical centres, institutes, and departments in Europe.

The main purposes of PLM are

  1. To further philosophy of mind and language in Europe generally.
  2. To provide a platform for cooperation between members, primarily in research, but possibly also in research training. This involves e.g. making use of PLM for joint applications to funding organisations.
