Dr. Sushree Sangita Mohanty
Applied anthropologist, educator, and researcher with over 14 years of experience in Indigenous education, linguistic and cultural sustainability, and the integration of emerging technologies for social impact. My work bridges academic research, grassroots engagement, and policy innovation—particularly in the revitalisation of endangered Indigenous languages through AI-enabled tools, multilingual curriculum design, and culturally grounded pedagogy. I have led award-winning initiatives at the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS), like the UNESCO King Sejong Prize-winning Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) programme. My interdisciplinary approach cuts across anthropology, museum studies, heritage tourism and digital humanities to connect Indigenous representation with global platforms, advancing community responsive and culturally rooted education through international collaboration.
