Tripura, The National Institute of Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA), a New Delhi-based Deemed to be University, has announced a collaborative initiative with Tripura University, Agartala, to host a significant two-day National Seminar focused on the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. Scheduled to take place on March 17-18, 2026, at the Tripura University campus, the seminar is titled "NEP 2020: Policy into Practice to Create a Knowledge Economy". This academic gathering is specifically tailored for the North Eastern Region of India, inviting papers and participation exclusively from this area to address regional educational challenges and opportunities.

The National Institute of Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA) stands as a premier institution established by the Ministry of Education, Government of India, dedicated to capacity building and research in educational planning and administration. By partnering with Tripura University, a central university known for its pursuit of excellence in the North East, the seminar leverages the expertise of two major academic bodies to foster a deeper understanding of policy implementation. The leadership for this event includes Prof. Shashikala Wanjari, Vice-Chancellor of NIEPA, and Prof. Shyamal Das, Vice-Chancellor (I/c) of Tripura University, alongside key coordinators like Prof. Veera Gupta and Dr. Paripally Shankar from NIEPA’s Department of Educational Policy.

The relevance of this seminar lies in its critical examination of how the NEP 2020 can be transitioned from a policy framework into practical application to build a robust knowledge economy. The objectives are centered on exploring policy implications, discussing resource mobilization, and understanding the role of various stakeholders in creating an equitable and inclusive quality education system. The seminar will delve into diverse themes, including the current status of NEP 2020 implementation, challenges in creating a knowledge economy, and best practices for adopting these policies within higher education. Prospective participants from the North Eastern Region are required to submit their abstracts by the deadline of February 22, 2026. Submissions and inquiries can be directed to the dedicated seminar email or through the provided contact details for the program directorate. This event represents a vital platform for educators and policymakers to share insights that will shape the future of education in the region.

At EduAdvice, we believe that staying informed about pivotal policy shifts like NEP 2020 is essential for every educator and student. We encourage all eligible scholars from the North East to participate in this seminar to contribute their voices to the national dialogue on educational reform and the building of a knowledge-driven future.
