We are proud to see two of our Center Fellows contributing their expertise, leadership, and dedication to shaping the future of the International Association of Women Philosophers (IAPh). It is a global network with over 380 members from more than 35 countries, dedicated to advancing research and dialogue in all areas of philosophy with a special focus on feminist philosophy.

Prof. Dr. Kateryna Karpenko is Head of the Department of Philosophy and Director of the Center for Gender Studies at Kharkiv National Medical University, Ukraine. A scholar with over 200 publications, she is a pioneer in ecofeminist perspectives and has initiated and coordinated numerous interdisciplinary conferences on Gender, Ecology, and Health. Since 2023, she has been a Fellow and Visiting Professor at the Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists, funded by the European Union through the MSCA4Ukraine Grant.

Dr. Ivana Skuhala Karasman is a researcher at the Institute of Philosophy in Zagreb, Croatia, specializing in Renaissance philosophy, the history of women philosophers in Southeast Europe, and the philosophy of gender. A long-standing Fellow of the Center, she has co-organized several Libori Summer Schools in Paderborn, Zadar, and Zagreb, contributing greatly to fostering international academic collaboration.

Congratulations to both on this achievement, and thanks for the long-standing cooperation with the Center – we look forward to many more inspiring projects together!
