Channel: Concern at IISc
Date: 20/12/2016

Societies across the world, however unequal, often highlight their diversity. But the experiences, debates and assertions of exclusion and inequality, embedded in this diversity, reinforce in shaping institutions, democracies and nations. This has immense contemporary and historical contribution in shaping modern India. Join us for a collection of short lectures capturing various aspects of these dialogues on diversity and exclusion, particularly focusing on education and institutions.

This programme, jointly organized by Bharat Gyan Vigyan Samiti Karnataka, All India People's Science Network, Concern IISc, Dhwani JNCASR and Students' Academic Council ISEC, is an initiative in Karnataka of the All India People's Science Network's (AIPSN) year long nation wide campaign to engage on the questions of democracy, diversity, development and social justice, both within academia and society at large.
