The 2nd World Logic Prizes Contest, 7th UNILOG, Crete 2022

Abstract

We discuss the evolution of the World Logic Prizes Contest. In a first section, we describe how this contest developed, on the on hand by the creation of the Universal Logic Prize starting in 2005 at the 1st World Congress and School on Universal Logic in Montreux, Switzerland, on the other hand by the creation of the Newton da Costa Logic Prize in Brazil in 2014. These two projects joined in 2018 by the organization of the 1st World Logic Prizes Contest at the 6th World Congress and School on Universal Logic in Vichy, France. In a second section, we talk about the organization of the 2nd World Logic Prizes Contest to take place in April 2022 at the 6th World Congress and School on Universal Logic in Crete, Greece. We explain that there will be 15 contestants from 15 different countries with a good geographic distribution. In a third section, we discuss how this project can develop in the future with the creation of more logic prizes, the creation of similar prizes in other fields and the organization of a World Scientific Prizes Contest.
