ERA: Existential Research Academy

Founders: Prof. Emmy Van Deurzen and Prof. Digby Tantam

Mission

ERA aims to provide a community for research grounded in existential and phenomenological philosophy. The research focuses on existential topics, existential therapy and phenomenological methods. ERA aims to support new researchers, for example via training, workshops, seminars and small grants; established researchers will be provided with opportunities to interact to meet face to face or online to share ideas and develop collaborative research. ERA intends to share expertise from existential research to the wider audience.
