The Punjab Research Group has been hosting conferences at least twice a year since 1984 and was established as an inclusive and all-embracing forum to provide a platform for discussion and debate on issues pertaining to East and West Punjab as well as the Punjabi diaspora. During the past 40 years, the PRG has provided space for academics to interact with each other regardless of territorial or disciplinary boundaries. This is especially important given the often-strained relationship between India and Pakistan, which has prevented discussion and dialogue between scholars of East and West Punjab.
The conference for 2026 will be held as a one-day event at King’s College London. This year’s PRG conference will mainly focus on the research of authors presented in the recently released Routledge Handbook of Punjab Studies. However, it will also include an interdisciplinary discussion focusing on the theme of ‘Punjab: Past, Present and Future’ to which can cover a broad range of content, including, but not limited to, history, philosophy, politics, gender, religion, environmental studies, economics, diaspora issues, linguistics, literature, poetry, arts, music, and culture.
