Dear friends, 

We have a new article on REDWeb co-authored by John Kurien, D. Nandakumar and Nalini Nayak.  


While Western perspectives often focus on the “what” and “how” of the coast and ocean, Eastern perspectives delve into the “why”— the deeper meanings and spiritual significance beyond the observable. In our latest article, the authors propose that integrating these two perspectives – empirical knowledge and spiritual insight – creates a narrative for marine bioregionalism that is both scientifically compelling and emotionally resonant.


I've copied John on this email if you want to write to him directly with any comments or reflections. Please do read and share widely within your networks.
