The goal of the quarterly Humboldt India Project workshops is to provide a platform for the South Asia competence of the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and other academic institutes in Berlin. 

Beginning with the first workshop in 2012, it has functioned as an interdisciplinary forum for the presentation and discussion of individual projects.
