Venue University of Agricultural Sciences, Bengaluru

The Government of the State of Karnataka (India) will organize a three day International Conference on the theme: ‘Reclaiming Social Justice, Revisiting Ambedkar’ between 21 – 23 July 2017. This Conference celebrates the 126th birth Anniversary of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar by using his life and work as inspiration to reflect on the contemporary significance of social, political and economic justice in India and across the world. The organizers hope and believe that this Conference may reshape and reorder political and policy priorities in current public discourse especially in complex, deeply diverse, and inegalitarian societies such as India. This event will emphasize sustained engagement between theory and practice by bringing together academics and social activists on one hand and those involved in governance, politics, and policy on the other.

Panelist : Sudhir Krishnaswamy, Managing Trustee at the CLPR will chair a keynote session on 22nd July 2017 between 2 P.M and 3.3o P.M.
