Here’s  to celebrate his  upcoming participation:

Celebrating Saurabh Pant at the Dunedin Writers & Readers Festival 2025

This festival, the vibrant literary heart of Ōtepoti/Dunedin will be even stronger as Saurabh Pant joins the Dunedin Writers & Readers Festival in New Zealand. 

Known for his insightful, globally relevant narratives, Pant will bring a special focus to one of the planet’s most treasured and vulnerable wonders — the Great Barrier Reef via his literary contributions.

Through his evocative prose and deeply researched work, he has consistently bridged the worlds of literature, environmental science, and human empathy. 

His participation will not only spotlight the urgent need to protect marine ecosystems but will also weave these concerns into the larger fabric of cultural dialogue that the festival fosters.

πŸ“– Probable expectations 


For a UNESCO City of Literature, his voice is both timely and necessary — a reminder that  his essays can ignite awareness, inspire action, and connect communities across oceans. 

Dunedin’s audiences are in for a rare blend of art and advocacy, delivered with the passion and clarity that have defined Pant’s literary journey as an author.

We warmly celebrate his presence and look forward to the ripples his words will send across the Tasman Sea and far beyond.


Here’s what  experts have to say about  his presence in such a popular  festival:
