🧠 Why IKS Matters Today

Sponsored by the Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR), this conference isn't just a history lesson. It’s about bridging the gap between ancient wisdom and contemporary challenges like sustainability, governance, and Artificial Intelligence.

Aligned with NEP 2020, the event focuses on mainstreaming IKS into higher education to foster a decolonized, holistic academic framework.

We are looking for papers and discussions on a massive range of topics:

• Science & Tech: Astronomy, Ancient Indian Mathematics, and Cosmology.

• Health & Ethics: Yoga, Vedas, Traditional Medicine, and the Ethics of the Bhagavad Gita.
