Summary
The International Association for the Cognitive and Evolutionary Sciences of Religion (IACESR) conference is taking place in conjunction with the Cultural Evolution Society (CES) conference on the 21st to the 23rd of September 2022, both hosted at Aarhus University. Based on past CES conferences, we expect at least 300 participants from around the world to attend this year’s event. The size, scope, and networking impacts of each of these conferences will have a beneficial academic outcome for conference participants and thus increase Aarhus University's global profile as a leading institution in the field of cultural evolution and the scientific study of religion. These funds will go toward supporting these events by bringing high-profile speakers to Aarhus.
