The Mittal Institute’s 2025 Annual Cambridge Symposium

Please join us for the Mittal Institute Annual Symposium 2026, that also marks the launch of an ambitious new interdisciplinary effort, Living with Rivers, which brings together experts across ecology, climate science, law, anthropology, public health, business, architecture and urban planning, engineering, and religion and culture. The project explores the interdependence of people and river systems, asking a central question: How well is South Asia living with its rivers?

This event is free and open to the public. This event will be held in person at Harvard University and livestreamed for virtual attendees.
