The repository named ‘Anuvada Sampada’ with close to 2000 academic resources and growing, is currently available in Hindi and Kannada.
The translations repository
https://anuvadasampada.azimpremjiuniversity.edu.in/ launched by the Vice Chancellor of Azim Premji University Indu Prasad in the presence of teachers, students, teacher educators and government officials, seeks to address the paucity of high-quality academic resources in Indian languages at the graduate and post-graduate level, the university said in a statement.
The initiative will enable students, academics, and practitioners to mine, use and reuse academic resources in science, social science, humanities, and languages. The repository is also expected to help promote original writing, reading, deliberation and discourse in Hindi and Kannada, it added.
“Non-availability of academic resources in Indian languages is a major constraint in expanding access to education and ensuring inclusion. We believe this initiative will help students engage more deeply with concepts and ideas currently available only in English, encourage nuanced debates, and develop perspectives in diverse contexts,” said Hriday Kant Dewan, who leads this initiative at Azim Premji University.
The repository includes select academic resources for postgraduate programmes in education and development, and undergraduate programmes in arts, science, and diploma courses. There are also select articles from journals, extracts or complete chapters from books, podcasts, short films, brief lectures, and panel discussions related to higher education.
