The philosophy of Jainism – one of the world’s oldest living traditions – offers a rich tapestry of complex and fascinating ideas with profound relevance for life and policy today. From abstract questions about how to discern truth in a multi-faceted reality to practical debates about what we should eat and how we value the environment, Jain thought invites us to rethink our assumptions and choices. Join us to explore these issues with leading scholars.
