Purpose
The 2020 Social Metaphysics Conference was a pre-read, online-only workshop for early career social metaphysicians. The purpose of the workshop was to give early career philosophers opportunities to get feedback on their work in light of the many lost opportunities due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Organizers & Host
The workshop was organized by Kevin Richardson and Asya Passinsky. The workshop was hosted by the NC State University Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies and the Philosophy, Politics, and Economics Program at UNC Chapel Hill.
