In the twenty-first century, livelihoods will be needed by perhaps two or three times the present human population, and it is therefore necessary to understand the changing dynamics of it. A livelihood comprises people, their capabilities, and their means of living. Livelihood is environmentally sustainable when it maintains or develops the local and global assets on which means of livelihood depend. The livelihood framework is also applicable in the context of rural areas. This covers capital both natural and social. Indian villages (both tribal and non-tribal) are unique in their own way, and very intriguing if you try to understand it from the emerging interrelationship between resource and livelihood from the women perspective. This chapter draws on insights from a small tribal village called Audali located in Sitarganj Tehsil of Udham Singh Nagar district in Uttarakhand. Tharu tribe, who has migrated from the state of Rajasthan centuries back to this area, dominates Audali village. It is interesting to see how development process has transformed their means of livelihood and how role of women became paramount at the household and community level with the changing socio-economic profile of the household and the village. The study throws light on the experiences of the group of motivated Tharu women in a more informal and fluid personal-cum-work space, such as home-based small-scale activities like handicraft, and capture the shifts and continuum in social relations, particularly in the context of means of livelihood and gendered division of work.

Uttarakhand became the 27th state of the Republic of India on 9th November 2000. To secure greater economic and political autonomy, the state was created from the state of Uttar Pradesh (U.P.) and is in the northwestern part of U.P. Udham Singh Nagar did not exist as a separate administrative entity until the year 1995. The seven tehsils or Development Blocks of Udham Singh Nagar, namely, Khatima, Bajpur, Kashipur, Gadarpur, Rudrapur, Jaspur, and Sitarganj had been part of Nainital district for more than 100 years (Robinson 2001 ).
Sector-wise contribution to GSDP of Uttarakhand reveals the increasing contribution of the secondary and tertiary sectors in recent years. The contribution of the primary sector, 14% during 2004–05, has come down to 13% in 2015–2016. Whereas the contribution of the secondary sector recorded at 52% in 2011–2012, has come down to 46% in 2015–2016. On the other hand, contribution of the tertiary sector which is reported 34% in 2011–2012 has gone up to 40% in 2015–2016 ( des.uk.gov.in )

Annexure 1: An overview of the occupational structure of Udham Singh Nagar and Sitarganj
Figures 21.4a–d and 21.5a–d present a brief snapshot of the occupational structure of the Udham Singh Nagar and Sitarganj. Figure 4a reveals that the share of rural population to total population is higher than the urban for Udham Singh Nagar and Sitarganj. The figure presents a comparative picture of the workforce profile. Figure 4b shows that the percent share of non-workers is greater as compared to the total workforce in both district and tehsil. The gender composition indicates that at both the spatial units, females predominantly constitute the non-worker category with about 80%. Similarly, Figure 4d reveals the gendered division of main and marginal workers. It is quite clear that the females participate mainly as marginal workers in the labor market than as main workers. This is in line with the stereotypical pattern of the gender composition of the workforce at various spatial scales.

Tribal Economic Development: Action is Needed to Better Understand the Extent of Federal Support
Historically, tribal communities have had higher rates of unemployment and poverty than other communities. The federal government administers multiple programs that can support economic development in these communities.
We identified 22 programs at 7 agencies that provide economic development assistance—e.g., grants or loans—to tribal governments and businesses. But these programs might be hard to identify or access, leaving tribal entities to miss out on valuable support.
Also, federal assistance totals for tribal entities are unknown because agencies don't analyze or report data for some programs.
Our recommendations address these issues.
What GAO Found
Federal efforts to support economic development among tribal entities (such as tribal governments and businesses) show evidence of fragmentation and some overlap. Programs are fragmented across seven agencies: the U.S. Departments of Agriculture (USDA), Commerce, Energy, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, and the Interior, and the Small Business Administration (SBA). Tribal organizations GAO spoke with said many tribes have limited capacity to identify and access programs and may not be aware of the federal assistance available. The Secretary of Commerce is required by law to assist tribes and other eligible entities with identifying and taking advantage of business development opportunities; however, the department does not maintain information on federal economic development programs across agencies available to tribal entities. Without information on available programs, tribal entities may not access programs that could provide valuable benefits to tribal communities. GAO did not find evidence of duplication.
Fragmentation among Economic Development Programs Available to Tribal Entities, Fiscal Year 2021
GAO identified eight programs that are specifically for tribal entities and provided over $930 million in grants and loan guarantees in fiscal years 2017–2021. An additional 14 programs have a wider range of eligible recipients, such as small businesses or local governments, as well as tribal entities. The total amount of assistance provided by these 14 programs to tribal entities is unknown because two agencies—SBA's Office of Capital Access and USDA's Farm Service Agency—do not analyze data to estimate obligations provided to tribal entities. Estimating and reporting the amount of program obligations provided to tribal communities would allow federal agencies and decision makers, such as Congress, to better understand the reach of these programs and identify areas where tribal entities may need additional support.
GAO identified several tax incentives that can contribute to economic development in tribal communities. However, data to evaluate whether tribal entities use these incentives are limited. In the absence of more specific data, location data can be used to estimate the extent to which some tax incentives have reached tribal communities. For example, using location data for the New Markets Tax Credit, GAO estimated that from 2004 through 2019, tribal communities (defined as individuals and businesses on or near reservations, trust land, or Oklahoma Tribal and Alaska Native Village Statistical Areas) received between $734 million and $891 million of investment (1.3 to 1.6 percent of the total dollars invested via the credit).
Why GAO Did This Study
Historically, tribal communities have experienced higher rates of unemployment and poverty than nontribal communities. Tribal economic development may help address these challenges and also provides benefits to tribes and surrounding areas. The federal government administers programs to facilitate this development.
The Indian Community Economic Enhancement Act of 2020 includes a provision that GAO conduct a study on Indian economic development. This report examines economic development programs available to tribal entities and the extent of fragmentation, overlap, and duplication among these programs; analyzes available data on obligations to tribal entities for these programs; and describes selected tax incentives available to tribes and related data, among other objectives. GAO reviewed program information, analyzed obligations data, and interviewed tribal entities, agency officials, and Native Community Development Financial Institutions.
Recommendations
GAO is making five recommendations, including that Commerce maintain information on economic development programs available to tribal entities across the federal government and that SBA and USDA establish plans to periodically analyze and report the amount of economic development assistance provided to tribal entities. Commerce, SBA, and USDA agreed with our recommendations.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Recommendation | ||
---|---|---|
Department of Commerce | The Secretary of Commerce should establish an organizational structure and assign responsibilities for the Office of Native American Business Development. (Recommendation 1) | |
Department of Commerce | The Director of Commerce's Office of Native American Business Development, in coordination with other relevant federal agencies and entities, should create, maintain, and share a repository of information on economic development programs across federal agencies that tribal entities can access, and should assist tribal entities in identifying programs best suited to their needs. (Recommendation 2) | |
Department of Commerce | The Director of Commerce's Office of Native American Business Development, in coordination with tribes, should establish a plan for periodically publicly reporting the amount of economic development assistance provided by Commerce to tribal entities and using that information to identify opportunities to improve assistance to tribal entities. (Recommendation 3) | |
Department of Agriculture | The Director of USDA's Office of Tribal Relations, in coordination with tribes, should establish a plan for periodically analyzing and publicly reporting the amount of economic development assistance provided to tribal entities by USDA and using that analysis to identify opportunities to improve assistance to tribal entities. This could include leveraging methods already used by specific USDA program offices such as Rural Development (Recommendation 4) | |
Small Business Administration | The Assistant Administrator of SBA's Office of Native American Affairs, in coordination with tribes, should establish a plan for periodically analyzing and publicly reporting the amount of economic development assistance provided by SBA to tribal entities and using that analysis to identify opportunities to improve assistance to tribal entities. (Recommendation 5) |

Political Economy of Tribal Development: A Case Study of Andhra Pradesh

Journal ijmr.net.in(UGC Approved)
The study of Indian tribal society has assumed a greater attention among the scholars both in India and abroad. Transition of these societies all over the world carved an interesting area for the pursuit of social knowledge. This is particularly explicit in the third world societies where the development transition has acquired an uneven proportion in its direction. Given the context of uneven development, tribal societies in these countries present further backward underdeveloped characters, which are characterized as Fourth World Societies. In brief, the tribal studies in Post-Independence era have found a considerable place in the field of social science research, but the focus on certain fields of research like-clan, custom and primitiveness of the tribal society was more visible than any other area of the subject. The British Government has recognized the distinct pattern of the tribal life and has accorded a special status to them. Innumerable laws were enacted to protect the interests of the tribals. The tribes in many parts of the country were designated as Scheduled Tribes and this has been in accordance to the 1874 scheduled district Act that was promulgated by the British Indian government. Apart from the efforts of the persons like Ambedkar and CVF Haimendorf to uplift the scheduled tribes from their socioeconomic degradation, the political exigencies of liberal democracy forced tile successive governments to create favorable conditions for dignified life for the scheduled tribes population broadly described as the policy of protective discriminations, it adopted the protective discriminative policy.
Abhijit Guha
The tribal communities face disregard for their values and culture, breach of protective legislations, serious material and social deprivation, and aggressive resource alienation. Hence, the solution to these issues should enable the tribals to protect their own interests. Protecting the land and forest rights of tribal communities is equivalent to protecting their livelihoods, life and liberty. This remains one of the critical necessities of a welfare State. Therefore, laws protecting tribal land from alienation must be upheld at all costs; The right to natural resources in tribal lands has to be protected. They should only be accessed with the consent of the Gram Sabhas of the villages (both directly affected and in the zone of influence); While tribal lands hold much of the natural and mineral wealth of the nation, these resources cannot be alienated against their will. Moreover, communities who part with their lands have the right to share in the wealth and income so generated from its resources. Hence, a reasonable share of the wealth generated by the resources in their homelands must accrue to them by law, and the right to preservation of their language, culture and traditions, and to protect themselves against the loss of identity, must be recognized, protected, documented and allowed to thrive as a dynamic living culture.

The Human Development Index of tribals is much lower than that of the rest of India’s population. In the UNDP Human Poverty Index, tribal communities of India, as a group, are ranked alongside those of sub-Saharan African countries, in the bottom 25. This is alarming, considering that India is a middle ranked country on the same index. Though tribals live in resource-rich regions, they continue to be marginalized in the development process. Micro finance, in this context, has emerged as a promising tool to correct market failure and ensure social-economic-political development of tribals. Micro finance is seen as an empowering tool having the ability to give voice to people and help them deal with exploitative forces. The paper looks at the outreach of Micro finance among the plain area tribes of Andhra Pradesh (AP) and the factors required for making Micro finance work for tribals. It is based on a study of tribal habitations in the plain area districts of AP commissioned by the Tribal Welfare Department, Government of AP. The paper argues for establishment of community-based financial institutions, bundling business development services with Micro finance and development of physical, social and economic infrastructure for development of plain area tribes. The paper also proposes building up a ‘tribal cadre’ for effective implementation of development programmes for tribals.

This paper considers the relationship between the historical emergence of colonial forestry institutions in forest areas of Andhra Pradesh and the chronic poverty of people living there. Between 5-15 million of Andhra’s population live in forested landscapes depending on definitions, and most of these live in severely deprived conditions and form what may reasonably be called a ‘forest underclass’. By underclass we mean to signify that peoples living in forests landscapes have been collectively subjugated and impoverished, and that forestry institutions are one of the primary causes. It may be argued that forest peoples inherently live at low income levels and that their poverty is latent. However using a Historical Institutional analytical framework we show that regardless their initial conditions, their livelihoods have been gravely impacted by the expropriation of productive assets (specifically private and collective land) and severe restrictions on livelihood related access and use rights in forest areas. We examine the processes of rights deprivations, applying concepts of critical junctures when institutional change occurred, and ‘path dependency’ when the consequences of institutional reforms gradually and cumulatively unfolded. The paper examines in detail somewhat arcane aspects of the processes through which the state ‘territorialisation‘ of forest hinterlands occurred in AP, at the expense of the predominantly tribal populations already resident there.

Inclusive growth is a concept which advances equitable opportunities for economic participants during the process of economic growth with benefits incurred by every section of the society. It should be reflected in the form of better opportunities for employment and livelihood and also in improvements in basic amenities like water, sanitation, housing, electricity etc and special attention for backward sections of populations scheduled castes and scheduled tribes and other excluded groups. Welfare programmes for the tribal people have to be based on respect and understanding of their culture and traditions and an appreciation of the social, psychological and economic problems which they are facing in their daily life. 'Inclusion' should be seen as a process of including these excluded sections of the society as agents whose participation is essential in the very design of the development process and not simply to make these people informed about the development schemes.

A review of the state of education among Adivasis/Tribals in India.
Kaveri Gill
This report is circumscribed in its aims, limiting itself to a subset of all that could be written about the status and situation of Scheduled Tribes in India today. An introduction in chapter 1 sets out demographics of the tribal population and the characteristics of their habitat, predominantly in mainland India. In chapter 2, we set out how the colonial State constructed and codified the ‘tribal’ and the ‘tribal area’, with a narrative of a civilising mission thinly disguising instrumental forays to support the security and economic needs of the Empire. The post-colonial State begins with an isolationist stance, but quickly reverts to the mode of the colonial State. We see in chapter 3, the use of the same categories of the ‘tribal’ and the ‘tribal area’—ostensibly for progressive policies and special dispensation—but increasingly such categories are used to further an integrationist agenda whereby their ‘modernisation’ and ‘development’ is closely shadowed by security imperatives. In chapter 4, we empirically examine how the Scheduled Tribes have been faring on poverty, deprivation and some other development indicators over the past two decades. Soon after India’s liberalisation, the 8th Five-Year Plan onwards, the post-colonial State formulated new institutional reform legislations, such as the Panchayat (Extension to the Scheduled Areas) Act in 1996 and Forest Rights Act in 2006, which are discussed in chapter 5. We show that while these legislations were envisaged to provide the tribal population complete autonomy to self-govern and to bestow upon them the rights to forests and forest produce, the actual experiences have been largely otherwise. We argue that the loss of these historical opportunities to address a long history of exploitation and misbegotten promises can be understood if one looks closely at the ultimate loci of power for the implementation of these legislations at the local government level; the forces of federalism, in so far as they allow states to compete in a race to the bottom; and the political economy of Indian capitalism. In chapter 6, we look at some other legislative and policy reforms—Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act 2013 and the Draft Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Bill 2011, which were aimed at fostering growth but in reality, affect the tribal population disproportionately and adversely. Looking at this trajectory, the recent ‘internal security’ initiative of the State (the Integrated Action Plan of the Eleventh Plan Period), as a response to violent resistance, seems—unfortunately—to be almost predestined. We conclude the report in chapter 7 with a few reflections on the political economy of capitalism, ‘development’, and resistance, as it plays out between a strongly interventionist State and the adivasis of mainland India.
