Adivasi rights movements
Adivasi rights movements are efforts by indigenous communities in India to protect their land, culture, and resources from exploitation and marginalization. These movements seek legal recognition, preservation of their traditions, and equitable access to resources like forests and land. Historically disadvantaged due to colonial policies and modern development projects, Adivasis advocate for self-determination, autonomy, and respect for their identity. Their activism aims to ensure their voices are heard in decisions affecting their lives, promoting social justice and safeguarding their heritage while resisting displacement and cultural erosion.
