delegated Nancy to this task. Formally, the congress is organized on a
national level. The candidature of Nancy was approved by the CNFHPS
(French National Committee of History and Philosophy of Science), which
exists within COFUSI (French Committee of International Scientific
Unions), the national institution responsible for the relations with the
International Union of History and Philosophy of Science (where DLMPS is
one out of two divisions).

The Division of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science (DLMPS) is
one out of two divisions, the second one being the Division of History of
Science and Technology (DHST), of the International Union of History and
Philosophy of Science (IUHPS), which are members of the prestigious
International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU).
The DLMPS was established in 1955. Its objectives are : to promote
contacts among logicians, philosophers of science and scientists
interested in the foundational problems of their disciplines, and among
institutions dedicated to logic, methodology, and philosophy of science;
to encourage and sustain research and study of important problems in
logic, methodology, and philosophy of science; to collect documents useful
for the development of logic, methodology and philosophy of science; to
organize, sponsor, and support international meetings of logic,
methodology and philosophy of science (International Congresses and
Symposia), and to publish reports, Conference Proceedings, and other works
related to such meetings.
