Negotiating Identities: An Anthropological Journey in Azad Kashmir
In this session, we’ll discus how anthropological aspects of identity are navigated in Azad Kashmir, and engage with a broader question of how individuals and communities navigate the political landscapes that shape their lives. This talk aims to inspire reflection, dialogue and a deeper understanding of the cultural and socio-political dynamics that are often overlooked in mainstream discourse.
