    • The United Nations’ resolution dated December 6, 2022 declared 2023 as the International Year of Dialogue (IYD). It is hoped that IYD initiatives would facilitate Peace through dialogue. IYD, it can minimally be assumed that, at every possibility of a conflict, would remind nations to promote initiatives and interventions for ‘mobilizing the efforts of the international community to promote peace and trust among nations based on, inter alia, political dialogue, negotiations, mutual understanding and cooperation, in order to build sustainable peace, solidarity and harmony’ initially during 2023.

    • Even as the strife in Yemen continues, a large number of citizens continue to have humanitarian problems. There are instances of health-related problems including cholera, measles, other vaccine-preventable diseases, medicine shortage and conditions of famine. A large number of people are facing problems of food insecurity. In this backdrop, there is serious need to explore nonviolent alternatives to bring a pause to the violence and its deleterious impact on the whole population. This chapter explores the impact of a small yet significant intervention to introduce nonviolent communication amongst the youth of Yemen. The aim is to capture how nonviolent communication as espoused by Mahatma Gandhi can be a powerful strategic alternative in places where there are disputes across the world.

  • Abstract
  • |
    • This article demonstrates the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach to peace by involving diverse thinkers’ creativity, knowledge, and the arts co-production process in the practice of science itself. It is an attempt to blend theory and practice together for a better understanding and addressing the under studied gap between macro level planning, decision making and the micro ground level work done and impact within the field of peace, sustainability and architecture. The article introduces a new transformative approach, New Peace Architecture and Peace building, through three case studies that brings concepts of sustainability and peace together which no longer bifurcates between human, non-human, living and non-living organisms in the practice of everyday building. In this transformative approach towards an open society aims to address intercultural and interreligious dialogue on the axis of a sustainable and just future, to strengthen women, to change consumption behaviours accordingly, to organise unusual collaborations between diverse actors, to implement nonviolent sustainable and just ideas in the city.

From the Cover page to the Body Text: Embedding Gandhi in Economics, Governance and Management Education 10.30954/2454-9525.02.2022.6 Category - Research Article
PDF

  • Abstract
  • |
    • Given the prevalent political, social and economic predicaments and disruptions in the world, Gandhi represents an idea that is much more relevant today than ever. The paper argues that merely placing Gandhian talisman on the cover of the textbooks published by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) would not suffice. It argues that like the theme of a story, Gandhian philosophy and practices must reverberate throughout the scholastic journey of our learners. The paper presents some pathways for embedding Gandhi in Economics, Governance and Management Education, that is, EGM education. The paper draws on methodological holism emphasizing the centrality of Gandhian thought in EGM Subject Content Knowledge (SCK) and Methodological Content Knowledge (MCK). It emphasizes experiential and experimental methods such that Gandhi is not reduced to a portrait on the back of a person’s chair. Instead, Gandhi engages her or him like a mirror in front that enables a personal makeover into a Vaishnav Jan through a transformative process that trains hands, awakens intellect and softens hearts.

    • Covid-19 virus posed to the whole world as a threat to life. International organizations like WHO also called it a shadow pandemic as during this period there was a rise in violence, abuse, and insecurities among many socio-economic groups. Amid all these challenges, volunteers, frontline workers, social workers, health functionaries, doctors, and counselors continued to serve the people in the situation of crisis. The present paper is an attempt to explore the practices and challenges of Telle-counsellors who were associated with telle services (special helpline for Covid- 19) set -up exclusively to cater to the migrant population, women, children, etc to address problems that occurred during Covid- 19 pandemic and worked as volunteer or was given the task to serve at helpline by their respective social organization and dealt with multiple issues of the clients affected by Covid- 19. The data in the present study was collected using a mixed method approach (sequential explanatory design) through volunteers who were giving their time in coordinating welfare activities during the time of pandemic through online connections. To reach out to these volunteers, snowball sampling was used as many organizations were not willing to participate in the study due to confidential issues. The data was collected by reaching out to 62 online volunteers. Further, the researcher reached out to five volunteers who
    were willing to share their extensive experience of online counseling. Both quantitative data and qualitative data were analyzed to conclude. The study shows that India has contributed substantially to the welfare of its people through many volunteer organizations and individual volunteers but the same is not appropriately supported in the world of digitalization therefore the national level policy is required to tap this human resource to utilize during the time of crisis, especially through online and remote outreach.
