Tanu Biswas
Researcher. Author. Educator.
I am an interdisciplinary philosopher of education, particularly interested in exploring the philosophical richness that children and childhood have to offer adults. In this vein I research children's civil disobedience for climate justice (e.g. Thunberg's School Strikes) as a call for rethinking pedagogical relationships. Over the last years my research has focused on education, sustainability and the trajectory of children living in various cultural contexts.
I teach on themes of pedagogy, childism, decoloniality, children's rights, intergenerational justice and qualitative methodology.
I am currently hosted by the Department of Philosophy, University of Bayreuth (Germany) and serve as the co-speaker of the Network Gender, Queer, Diversity, Intersectionality Studies at the same institution. I work closely with The Childism Institute, Rutgers University Camden USA.
