International Prize – Thematic 2023
The 2023 Fyssen International Prize will be awarded for research in :
COGNITION AND RELIGION
Cognition plays an important role in theories of religion and religious practices can evidently influence cognitive processes – but how is the relation between the two best captured and is there one approach that can account for influences in both directions ?
The Prize will be awarded to an internationally recognized scholar who has significantly advanced our understanding of the relation between cognition and religion.
The award for the International Prize is 100 000 €
