MAP-Penn aims to address issues of minority participation in philosophy. Our main activity is organizing conferences where philosophers who are minorities or who work on issues relevant to minorities can share their expertise and form networks. In addition to conferences, MAP-Penn has organized visiting speaker series, reading groups, undergraduate information sessions, and other events to help members of Penn's philosophy department connect with others as professionals and community members.
