Curriculum, Research and Policy
At JFP, we have experimented with various pedagogical frameworks to find the optimum curriculum for critical caste studies. We have formed research and policy that deal with important caste questions. We have achieved this by taking help from several working groups that we formed over the years, which comprise members from JFP’s diverse Faculty, Research, and Policy Team, alongside holding strategic engagements with members of the Global Advisory and Resource Team. These working groups have been essential in shedding light on nuances concerning issues related to critical caste studies, caste-class-gender, and caste-gender-sexuality. In the spirit of collaboration and inclusivity, and following our ethos of sikne & sikaune (learning & teaching), this initiative values every participant – teacher, instructor, student, or community member – as a colleague and co-teacher.
