Prithvi Darshana: Revitalizing Indigenous Epistemes for Sustainable Futures
The symposium turns the searchlight on climate discourse by foregrounding indigenous epistemes, women-led resilience, and the interconnections between climate change, conflict, and human (in)security. It calls for moving beyond merely “adding” climate content to fundamentally reimagining climate-change-sensitive education by bridging community wisdom and academic spaces to cultivate intergenerational, gender-sensitive, and justice-oriented pedagogies for sustainable and inclusive futures. The programme will bring together seasoned scholars, practitioners, women community leaders, and young grassroots practitioners in an intergenerational dialogue to share insights and experiences.
