PUBLICATIONS

I’m working on a series of articles related to disruptive technologies such as AI and their ethical implications for youth.

Here's my article in the Straits Times, Singapore’s leading daily newspaper, about the importance of involving youth in AI governance. This is essential because Generation Z brings a new set of global values -- such as inclusivity and sustainability -- to conversations about how to ethically regulate AI technologies.


Travel Memoir

I wrote an interactive memoir about her experiences traveling across Eurasia on the world's longest train journey at the age of 11 years.

From Scotland to Singapore” on Amazon.

Praise for the book

“A wondrous and extra special book that will inspire travellers, globe trotters, geographers and historians of all ages.”

Peter Frankopen, Professor of Global History, Oxford University, and author of The Silk Roads and The New Silk Roads

“By the age of nine, Zara Khanna had traveled to more than fifty countries, displayed a zest, a spirit and a fearless sense of adventure that could put most of us to shame and was serving as a role model for a new generation of savvy global citizens. Now, in her first book (of many, I’m sure), she offers a truly inspiring and informed guide to the planet that takes us from England to Uzbekistan to Laos and teaches us all how to look beyond borders and journey with delight. Witty, winning, interactive, multimedia: here is a unique guidebook to tomorrow!”

Pico Iyer, author of Video Nights in Kathmandu, Tropical Classical, The Global Soul, Sun After Dark, and many other books   

“A curiosity-fueled romp across Eurasia, From Scotland to Singapore contains a wealth of history, geography, and just pure fun. And there’s no more tireless and imaginative a guide than Zara Khanna.”

Paul Salopek, two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist currently walking around the world for the Out of Eden project sponsored by National Geographic
