The Centre for the Study of Social Inclusion at NLSIU is organising a ‘Workshop on Inequality and Public Policy’ on September 5, 2024 from 11 am to 4:30 pm at the NLS campus.
About the workshop:
This is a generative workshop to deliberate how inequality as a socio-political phenomenon shapes public policy options. Familiarity with the notion of inequality and factors that drive inequality in India is assumed among the participants of the workshop. As a generative workshop, the idea is to craft new research agendas, rather than discuss basic concepts of inequality and drivers of inequality.
Key Resource Person:
Mr. Narendar Pani is Professor at the National Institute of Advanced Studies (NIAS), Bangalore. He recently led a long-term study on inequality and intervention in India. The study examined what inequality does to multiple processes of social transformation. During the workshop, he will be sharing the findings from this research as well as responding to methodological challenges in studying inequality.
