Alongside my PhD research I have co-founded the Interdisciplinary Research Network for Economists and Philosophers, or IRNEP.
IRNEP is a network set up to encourage interdisciplinary research between Economists and Philosophers. The founding ethos is that both disciplines can learn from one another, and being able to successfully integrate ideas, methods and criticisms from either will only enrich the work that is done. In order for research have an impact past its academic comfort zone clear dissemination of work to other disciplines is necessary. Our hope is that this network will bring together researchers from either discipline to enable collaborations to take place, and benefit the research environment. A link to the IRNEP website can be found by clicking here.
Core to the network will be the annual conferences we run. These conferences will embody the aims of the network, and bring together researchers and academics to present and discuss their work. We have organised four conferences to date: University of Reading, 2022; University of York, 2019; University of York, 2016; and University of Reading, 2015.
