About the Kengeri Campus
The IIHS Kengeri Campus is planned as an ecologically sensitive campus that will test and demonstrate a range of various sustainable practices in aspects such as construction, water management, biodiversity, agro-forestry and waste management. The Campus is a living learning lab that demonstrates various aspects of sustainable living and is meant to generate knowledge that can help learners and other practitioners apply these lessons.

About the IIHS Word Lab
The IIHS Word Lab delivers editorial and publication support to IIHS and beyond, enabling the IIHS community to write more effectively and systematising a regular flow of publications and written knowledge outputs. It is responsible for communicating IIHS’ diverse forms of writing to specialised communities and a wide public readership. The Lab also strengthens IIHS’ public engagement through IIHS City Scripts, the annual urban writings festival, and its monthly City Scripts events.

Job Description
The Word Lab, IIHS’s editorial team, is seeking a candidate with strong writing, editing,



and coordination skills and a background or keen interest in the fields of architecture, planning, or the built environment, to work on books and other knowledge products. The Word Lab anchors a series of books that are planned as a repository of the design, planning process, construction, experimentation, and learnings that entail the building of an ecologically sensitive campus from scratch. Unlike design books that focus on the finished product, the intent here is to delve into a reflection on processes, which can hold valuable lessons for learners, architects, engineers, building professionals and anyone who has an interest in the field.

This will be a contractual position for an initial term of 11 months, renewable on mutual consent.
