Philosophizing in a Globalized World (GloPhi) is a Center for Advanced Studies at Hildesheim University funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). Our aim is to pluralize the canon of philosophy by combining methodologies from cross-cultural philosophy and decolonial theory. Building on the findings of the research project Histories of Philosophy in a Global Perspective, we aim at creating the Hildesheim Encyclopedia of Philosophy (HePS), a database of philosophical documents and practices from a diverse set of languages and regions with commentaries from experts. Additionally, we organize a broad range of events to connect academic and public discourse and invite Fellows from around the world to work with us locally at our center in Hildesheim.
