The British Philosophical Association (BPA) is a British organisation set up in October 2002 to promote the study of philosophy.

Early history

During the early 1980s the merging of educational establishments and financial cut-backs meant that some philosophy departments had closed and more were under threat. The National Committee for Philosophy (NCP) was formed to try and address this. The committee was successful and, following on from their success sought to secure the future of the subject of philosophy in education.
