SFI

The Società Filosofica Italiana (S.F.I.) is a national scientific and cultural association that brings together people engaged in philosophical research, teaching, and practice. Its members include academics, secondary-school teachers, researchers, and others with an interest in philosophy. Through a network of local sections, the S.F.I. supports philosophical activity across Italy and provides information for prospective members.

The association organizes conferences, conventions, seminars, festivals, and other public initiatives, often in collaboration with its local sections. Its activities also include professional development courses for teachers, which are recognized by the Italian Ministry of Education, and collective work on new teaching models and approaches. The S.F.I. promotes philosophy in schools through educational initiatives and national philosophy competitions and olympiads. Its publications include the journal Bollettino, Comunicazione filosofica, and books, with an archive of materials available through its website. The site also shares news, press releases, information about events, partnerships, and the association’s educational resources, connecting philosophical scholarship with teaching and public discussion.
