María Echevarría, a research assistant at the Institute, participated in the seminar on the epistemology of religion, organized by the " LATAM Bridges in the Epistemology of Religion" project at the University of Houston. This project aims to build bridges between North American and Latin American philosophers working on topics related to the epistemology of religion. Directed by Luis Oliveira, the project is supported by a grant from the John Templeton Foundation.

The seminar took place from July 8 to 19 at the University of Brasília and was attended by 20 young academics from universities in Brazil, Chile, and Argentina. It was led by eight academics from various American universities, who addressed diverse topics in the epistemology of religion. The sessions fostered dialogue and exchange between the American academics and the participants. The first week featured presentations by Stephen Wykstra (Calvin) and Sanford Goldberg. (Northwestern) spoke about testimony, experience, and rationality. On Thursday and Friday, the sessions were led by Jane Friedman (NYU) and Andrew Moon (VCU), who addressed the debunking argumentsDisagreement and doubt. During the second week, John Hawthorne (USC) and Agnes Callard (Chicago) addressed the topics of evidence, belief, and values. Finally, Jason Baehr (LMU) and Miriam McCormick (Richmond) concluded the seminar with sessions on epistemic virtues, epistemic responsibility, and knowledge.

There were also two lectures open to the public, given by Agnaldo Cuoco Portugal - local co-organizer of the seminar - on "Villa-Lobos, the existence of God and Brazilian philosophy" and "Some problems with miracles".
