In this episode, Pragya Tiwari and Mukulika Banerjee take a step back from the news cycle to  reflect on the broader question of democracy and how we can ‘cultivate’ it. They use the idea of ‘cultivating democracy’ as a framework to look at the socio-political faultlines that impact the health of democracies world over. The discussion is based on Mukulika’s recent inaugural lecture at the London School of Economics. It also links with Pragya’s work as a journalist, on how democracy manifests and operates on ground. This broad discussion on democratic ethos travels from rural farmlands to international universities and attempts to supplement conversations on democratic rights and institutions. Produced by Oijo Media Pvt Ltd | www.oijo.inShow notes :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG99NEfUKg0 Inaugural Lecturehttps://www.waterstones.com/book/cultivating-democracy/mukulika-banerjee//9780197601877?awaid=3787&utm_source=redbrain&utm_medium=shopping&utm_campaign=css&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrcbTt_Kw8wIVhWDmCh13IgixEAQYASABEgJ2vfD_BwE Buy Cultivating Democracyhttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/290474512_Education_for_Tomorrow_The_Vision_of_Rabindranath_Tagore Tagore’s vision for educationhttps://documents.worldbank.org/en/publication/documents-reports/documentdetail/178591468042542781/collective-action-and-community-development-evidence-from-self-help-groups-in-rural-india SHG’s economic and social impact
