Some of the questions discussed during the 2-day event include:
Does nature have a causal structure?
What are the arguments for causal realism?
Does knowing the nature amount to knowing its causal structure?
How is the causal structure constraining our knowledge representations?
Is there a space for pluralism with regards to causal structures?
How do we select features of the causal structure that are explanatorily salient?
