The Adivasi Movement

The Adivasi Movement is a social and political effort by indigenous tribal communities in India to protect their rights, land, and culture. Historically marginalized, Adivasis seek recognition, forest rights, education, and preservation of their traditions against encroachment and exploitation by governments and corporations. The movement involves protests, advocacy, and legal battles to ensure Adivasis maintain control over their resources and way of life. It highlights issues of social justice, environmental sustainability, and cultural identity, aiming for equitable development that respects their distinct identities and resolves historical injustices.
