Dr. Shiluinla Jamir is an Indigenous feminist theologian from Nagaland, North East of India. Her work draws from liberative ethics and its emphasis on moral “oughts” as “derivatives of survivals”, as well as on non-archival community knowledge and oral memory; thus, giving voice to the relationality by which Indigenous people engage with the world and with each other. By centering moral knowledge based on Indigenous peoples’ world-making paradigm, she contributes to the global discussion on what it means to live well.
