Abstract

As the world undergoes rapid transformation through technology, globalization, and shifting values, education for Generation Z (born roughly mid‑1990s through early 2010s) faces the challenge of remaining relevant, meaningful, and culturally rooted. Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) offer a rich repository of philosophical, pedagogical, scientific, and ethical traditions that can inform a reimagined educational paradigm. This paper explores how IKS can be integrated with modern educational innovation to engage Gen Z learners more deeply, promote holistic development and foster values such as sustainability, community, and ethical leadership. The paper reviews relevant literature on IKS, Gen Z learning styles and pedagogy, analyses case studies and models and proposes frameworks for incorporating IKS in curricula, teacher training and educational technology. It concludes with implications, challenges, and recommendations for policy and practice.
