Join us online Earth Day weekend, April 25–26, 2026, for Arihanta Institute’s 4th annual Engaged Jain Studies Conference, held each Earth Day weekend. This year’s gathering, “Engaged Anekāntavāda & Interreligious Dialogue,” brings together leading scholars of Jain, Buddhist, Hindu, and Sikh traditions to explore both historical and contemporary expressions of anekāntavāda, from interreligious dialogue to business ethics, political participation, education, environmental care, and more. The conference will stream live on Arihanta Institute’s platform, with all sessions freely available afterward.

 

The conference is designed to be interactive, offering opportunities for participants to engage directly with speakers through dynamic discussions and Q&A sessions. Whether you are a scholar, practitioner, or someone interested in Jain philosophy and its applications, this conference provides you with a unique platform to connect with like-minded individuals, learn from experts, and contribute the the interreligious dialogue.
