How to teach about the Indian traditions and religions?

Original language description

The present workshop provides an opportunity to reflect on and exchange views about how to teach on the Indian religions and traditions. While many panels tackle theoretical aspects of rethinking religion in India, this workshop invites the participantsto propose and discuss pragmatic solutions. The organisers will each speak briefly about their experience in teaching Indian religions and will open up debate with a series of particularly controversial questions. Teaching about Indian religions in the contemporary world is an epistemological and pedagogical challenge. We shall concretize the task by searching for Indian equivalents to the conceptual components of religion.
