1st WITCH

First Workshop on Interdisciplinary Topics in Consequence and Hypothetical reasoning.
July 21st to 23rd, 2025, from 1:30pm to 6pm.
Selvino Assmann room, UFSC, Florianópolis.
The First Workshop on Interdisciplinary Topics in Consequence and Hypothetical reasoning aims to bring together researchers working on logic across a variety of disciplines. The workshop’s primary focus is the rigorous exploration of consequence and hypothetical reasoning from diverse perspectives.
Our central objective is to foster a collaborative and intellectually stimulating environment—one where participants can share ongoing work, engage in forward-looking discussions, and build meaningful connections. We hope to facilitate the discovery of synergies between different methodologies and viewpoints, encouraging innovative responses to the complex challenges posed by reasoning.
We are convinced that the cross-pollination of ideas among philosophy, mathematics, computer science, and linguistics will significantly deepen our understanding of logic and its wide-ranging applications.
