India as global social science knowledge producer
The colloquium aims to position India’s development experience as a source of globally relevant knowledge and explore how the country’s democratic processes, policy innovations and grassroots perspectives can contribute to addressing contemporary global challenges. Organisers said the event seeks to move beyond viewing India merely as a subject of empirical study and instead highlight it as a producer of conceptual and practical insights for governance, sustainability, social transformation and inclusive development.
The discussions will focus on themes including “Viksit Bharat and India’s Emergence as a Global Social Science Knowledge Producer”, digital transformation, sustainable development, global geopolitics, migration, health and well-being, and the internationalisation of higher education. Sessions will also examine the role of local knowledge systems, diversity and democratic experiences in shaping global policy frameworks.
