Being unaware of their existing problem of survival, the Tribal People do not seek any solution. Hence, they are never on the path of progress. They remain isolated for generations together and hardly nurture any dream about a prospective future. The essence of Tribal welfare lies in this understanding and paving the way to create a dream for the future.
Fallow land & tribal inhabitation have a peculiar correlation. We started intervening in 2010 on a piece of
fallow land in the Garhbeta III district adjacent to a Tribal village with the concept of introducing lac cultivation.
We promoted the training, cultivation and a regular income-generating process. A primary health care centre
was also introduced with the facility of an ambulance. This exercise revealed how to lead a complete life with
basic facilities.
Two additional projects commenced in 2015 in the Jhargram District's Gopiballavpur 1 Block. The goal of these
initiatives was to recover 75 acres of fallow land, and the participants were people from minority ethnic
groups.
For spending generations in this vast area of fallow land, a mental shackle was created. From the very
beginning of the intervention, the response was very positive. The reason was that we convinced them a
breakthrough was in the offing. The women in these groups appreciated that IMAP was there to resolve any
problem whenever they faced it. Apart from addressing financial difficulties, medical assistance and the
support of an ambulance gave these women a lot of confidence.The introduction of a primary healthcare
system played a pivotal role to motivate them.
A year has passed. The fields became gradually green and began to produce new vegetables and fruits. Two laboratories for soil testing and
tissue culture were set up. Now they began to believe that the future was less dire than they had thought.
IMAP was able to instil in them such faith and hope. Regular wages, access to clean drinking water, nutritious
foods, medical care, and work in a lush productive field transformed their lives.They started their journey to mainstream life breaking the shackle of slumber.
