The Makers: Mobilizing Arts, Knowledge, and Education to Reclaim Human Agency. Strategies for the Age of Machine Thinking

The Makers could be a name for a band, like the Beatles, the Ramones, or the Sex Pistols. But it isn’t. It is the name of an international research initiative in the humanities and arts, that brings together twenty partner organisations from ten countries, including universities, cultural institutions, and NGOs. Institute of Philosophy of the Czech Academy of Sciences is proud to be one of them.

Application deadline: 22 November 2026. Please send your applications to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Contact...
