On 11 January 2025, the WLD 2025 Logic in Estonia Workshop will be held at the Estonian Academy of Sciences (Kohtu 6, Tallinn) to celebrate World Logic Day. The workshop can also be followed via Zoom. 

This in-person event is meant as a friendly get-together for people in or outside of Estonia who are interested in philosophical or mathematical/computer science logic - an opportunity to learn about current logic research in Estonia on both sides of the field and to celebrate the World Logic Day.

Among the speakers will be Professor Andrzej Indrzejcak from the University of Łódź, Vice Professor Miika Hannula from the University of Tartu, Professor Paweł Sobociński from Tallinn University of Technology and many others.

Being human, both as an individual and as a member of society, is characterised by awareness, knowledge and common sense. Logic, as a theory of correct discussion, has played and continues to play a very important role in the development of philosophy and the sciences. The current turbulent period illustrates sharply the bad consequences of blurring the ideas of truth and inference. The celebration of 14 January as Logic Day began in 2019 and has been under the auspices of UNESCO since 2020. Kurt Gödel's death anniversary and Alfred Tarski's birth anniversary were chosen, as a tribute to two of the most important logicians of the 20th century (see http://wld.cipsh.international/).

In Estonia, we will celebrate World Logic Day for the fifth time in 2025.
