Biography
Since 2013 to now I am a Director of the Marginalised and Endangered Worldviews Study Centre (MEWSC) at University College Cork, National University of Ireland. https://mewsc.wordpress.com/
Research Interests
Strengthening research, innovation and knowledge transfer on Climate Change & Tourism in Higher Education Institutions in Latin America
An exchange with Bolivia, Technical University of Oruro-Bolivia, enriches the study and understanding of dynamics of indigeneity in Higher Education from a global perspective. Bolivia is an example of indigenous modernity, education and citizenship. The educational exchange with Bolivia under an International Credit mobility feeds into an internationalised European education on sustainability and the indigenous issue on the global stage
Marginalised and Endangered Worldviews Study Centre (MEWSC) https://mewsc.wordpress.com/
Directors: Lidia Guzy and James KapaloThe mission of the Centre is to promote the study of contemporary endangered cultures, religions and worldviews. Cultural expressions - both tangible and intangible - and the worldviews of marginalised, endangered and persecuted peoples, social groups and indigenous communities are the focus of MEWSC. As an academic community the Centre aims to promote engaged and philanthropic scholarship for an inclusive and reflective global society.
The Marginalised and Endangered Worldviews Study Centre (MEWSC) is conceived as a genuinely global hub for key strategic networks and research strands already established within the Study of Religions Department, such as the Adivasi Research Network, Orthodoxy in Migration Network and the Study of Religions Department’s engagement with the Brazilian Science without Borders.
The centre has four regional priorities; Brazil, South Asia, Russia/Eastern Europe (all within the BRICS grouping) and economically marginalised Southern Europe. At the heart of the centre’s mission is the aim to interlink with transnational agencies such as UNESCO, The Council of Europe and the United Nations in order to support emancipatory claims of threatened communities globally. It is the first centre in Ireland to place endangered worldviews and their cultural expressions as a core mission statement and to bring together scholars and non-governmental actors. The centre’s innovative trans-disciplinary approach, its global reach and its social and cultural integrative mission position UCC well in order to capitalize on both European and global research.
Since September 2011 to now
Establishment of a new emerging research area in the Study of Religions:This led to a research workshop on "Adivasi Religions in Indigenous India- Dialoques with the Divine"
The indigenous people of India, also known as ādivāsīs, “tribals,” and “ST’s”, constitute around 8 % or even more of the Indian population (1,21 billion) and are the largest grouping of indigenous peoples in a state, but in the study of South Asia and South Asian religions they are largely invisible and voiceless. Adivasis however have their own religious traditions, observances, stories, and ideas which deserve documentation recognition and study.
