We are pleased to announce that the Mathematics and Informatics Committee of the Regional Center of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in Pécs and the Set Theory, Logic and Topology department of the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics are organizing a hybrid workshop celebrating the 8th World Logic Day on the 9th of January 2026.
The aim of World Logic Day is well summarized in the following quote:
"A dynamic and global annual celebration of World Logic Day aims at fostering international cooperation, promoting the development of logic, in both research and teaching, supporting the activities of associations, universities and other institutions involved with logic, and enhancing public understanding of logic and its implications for science, technology and innovation."
