  • Women's Collective Venture Towards Revival of Animal Husbandary For
    Women’s Collective Venture towards Revival of 6 Animal Husbandary for Livelihood Security - CASE STUDY A Case Study from a Village of Kutch District Meghadeepa Chakraborty How a women’s collective in drought-stricken Dador scripted a new phase in liveli- hood security through a judicious mix of watershed development, fodder banks and cow-milk production. Traditionally, livestock rearing or animal husbandry is considered one of the major sources of livelihood for the rural poor, especially in the semi-arid regions of the country. It contributes towards household income significantly and also supports food security, improved nutrition, and insurance at the household level. However, sustaining animal husbandry has become challenging for communities in arid and semi-arid zones due to a precarious water situation, inaccessibility of fodder, inadequate health facilities, lack of market and appropriate technology. A combination of all these factors often force poor households to look for alternative livelihood options such as migration, local wage labour etc, leaving behind their traditional occupations. Moreover, in such situations, women are the worst affected, posing a greater challenge. This case study gives a picture of a women’s collective, Sairi Jo Sangathan, in the Nakhatrana taluka of the Kutch district of Gujarat, and highlights the efforts made for the revival of the traditional occupation of animal husbandry and the changes it has brought about in the community. In analysing the case, an effort has been made to bring forth the initiatives taken by the women for forming a community- level institution and the arrangements that have been made surrounding the resource use.

  • Annual Report 2012 This Is an Indicative Map /Artist’S Representation - Not to Scale
    ANNUAL REPORT 2012 THIS IS AN INDICATIVE MAP /ARTIST’S REPRESENTATION - NOT TO SCALE PROGRAMME AREAS OF AKRSP (INDIA) GUJARAT BHARUCH, SURAT, NARMADA, TAPI, NAVSARI and DANG districts are some of the poorest areas in the state of Gujarat. A very poor tribal community lives on undulating and degraded land that was once heavily forested. Primitive Tribal Groups, largely landless, eke out a livelihood through labour and bamboo work. JUNAGADH and PORBANDAR districts face problems of groundwater depletion and salinity ingress on the coast and over-exploitation of the Gir Forest. Multi-caste and multi-religious communities are struggling to maintain their livelihoods. SURENDRANAGAR and RAJKOT districts are amongst the most drought-prone districts of Gujarat. Most of the villages in these districts face an acute scarcity of water. MADHYA PRADESH KHANDWA, BARWANI, BURHANPUR and KHARGONE districts in Madhya Pradesh are home to marginalized tribal populations who live in poverty despite the rich natural resource base. BIHAR MUZAFFARPUR and SAMASTIPUR districts in fl ood-prone Bihar are low in Human Development Indices (HDI), have very low literacy rates and migration to the urban areas is key source of livelihood.

  • The Shaping of Modern Gujarat
    A probing took beyond Hindutva to get to the heart of Gujarat THE SHAPING OF MODERN Many aspects of mortem Gujarati society and polity appear pulling. A society which for centuries absorbed diverse people today appears insular and patochiai, and while it is one of the most prosperous slates in India, a fifth of its population lives below the poverty line. J Drawing on academic and scholarly sources, autobiographies, G U ARAT letters, literature and folksongs, Achyut Yagnik and Such Lira Strath attempt to Understand and explain these paradoxes, t hey trace the 2 a 6 :E e o n d i n a U t V a n y history of Gujarat from the time of the Indus Valley civilization, when Gujarati society came to be a synthesis of diverse peoples and cultures, to the state's encounters with the Turks, Marathas and the Portuguese t which sowed the seeds ol communal disharmony. Taking a closer look at the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the authors explore the political tensions, social dynamics and economic forces thal contributed to making the state what it is today, the impact of the British policies; the process of industrialization and urbanization^ and the rise of the middle class; the emergence of the idea of '5wadeshi“; the coming £ G and hr and his attempts to transform society and politics by bringing together diverse Gujarati cultural sources; and the series of communal riots that rocked Gujarat even as the state was consumed by nationalist fervour. With Independence and statehood, the government encouraged a new model of development, which marginalized Dai its, Adivasis and minorities even further.
