ON AN EXPLORATION IN TO THE CHALLENGES FACED BY ADIVAASI INDUSTRY IN GENERAL AND ALSO IN RESPONSE TO CLIMATE CHANGE IN INDIA AND FURTHER STUDYING THE POSSIBLE HIERARCHICAL INTER-RELATIONSHIPS AMONGST THEM

Abstract

Adivaasi group of Indian community constitute 8.6 per cent of India’s population, but they have been continually excluded from the nation’s development. Livelihood generation projects, conservation measures and health and education programs have been framed without taking into account the Adivaasi group of Indian population. They rarely had a say in the programs planned around their lives and land. This is with regard to climate change and environment related welfare issues as well. Present research thereby focuses on the challenges faced by Adivaasi industry in India in general as well as in response to the climate change and carbon credit policies and further studying the possible hierarchical interrelationships amongst them using VAXO technique encrypted  in ISM methodology.
