The School of Policy and Governance presents Azim Premji University’s first policy conclave, The Podium.

The theme of the conclave is Ideas, Actors, and Institutions: Negotiating Policy Making. 

The intent of the conclave is to direct the limelight on the varied lenses through which different institutions of the state and civil society negotiate policy-making. 

This event would contribute to creating a forum for various voices from different institutions to discuss, debate, and deliberate on the contemporary issues of policy and governance. 

Engaging panel discussions on a diverse range of topics are planned – Climate Change, Women in Policy, Criminal Justice Reforms, Technology Policy, Manifestos in Elections, and Internal Security.
