At the Kolkata Children’s Literature Festival in 2024, the SPK Jain Futuristic Academy was thrilled to have renowned novelist Devdutt Pattanaik speak in a special session. The “Traditional Wisdom and Cultural Values in Modern Education System” workshop gave participants a perceptive look at how timeless lessons apply to modern society.

Mr. Pattanaik, who is well-known for his vast research on mythology and culture, enhanced the celebration with his profound comprehension of the relationship between customary knowledge and modern living. A provocative viewpoint on incorporating traditional cultural values into contemporary schooling was offered during the conversation.

The public, media representatives and fans of literature are all invited by the academy to participate in this important discussion. The festival continues to give a platform for exploring the lasting significance of cultural values in our modern society.
