International Conference on Gender Discourses | Faculty of Law, University of Delhi | November 17 – 18, 2026

About the Conference:

As India moves toward the goals of Viksit Bharat, its ancient intellectual tradition serves as a meaningful guide. It reminds us that building an inclusive and progressive society does not require a break from India ‘ s civilizational heritage; rather, it calls for a renewed engagement with its most considered understandings of gender, human capability, and social harmony. In this context, the Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) offer a rich and layered understanding of gender, dignity, autonomy, education, family, justice and social order. Ancient Indian texts do not present a single uniform view of women and gender relations; rather, they reflect a dynamic intellectual tradition in which ideas of equality, capability, and harmony inform the norms. A close reading of primary texts reveals that women were envisioned not merely within domestic confines, but as participants in knowledge production, daily and ritual life, and legal frameworks.
