“…In the lean season, vegetables are hard to find, and costs have shot up, giving a sizeable benefit to the farmers because of heavy interest (6). Again, due to the larger number of tribal populations along with a low literacy rate (7), constraints regarding the adoption of new practices are greater (8). There is also a need to improve the production and productivity of offseason vegetables through advanced procedures to meet the required amounts of vegetables in the diet and make off-season vegetable production a beneficial endeavour.…”

The study on the “Extent of adoption of off-season vegetable cultivation by tribal farmers in Koraput district of Odisha” was conducted using Ex-Post-Facto research design. The study was conducted in the Koraput and Semiliguda blocks of Koraput district, Odisha, with a sample size of 120. The study used an ex-post facto research approach that combined random and purposeful sampling methods. While the gram panchayats, villages, and respondents were chosen at random, the district and blocks were purposefully chosen. The responses were obtained from each individual respondent through a structured interview schedule. Regarding adoption, the majority (75%) of off-season vegetable growers had medium adoption levels. With mean scores of 2.93, 3.00, 3.00, 2.87, 2.75, and 1.25 in regards to production, management, conservation, marketing, training, and capacity building, as well as supporting data, farmers have more adoption of land suitability, crop rotation, across-slope ploughing, input availability, discussion meetings, and crop insurance, respectively. To augment off-season vegetable production in the state in general and Koraput in particular, the latest proven and viable technology for off-season vegetable production needs to be diffused through various extension activities to accelerate its adoption. Again, the new, tried-and-true vegetable-growing techniques should be disseminated through several extension programmes to speed their adoption.

“…India has the world's largest tribal population, making up 8.2% of the country's total population as of the 2011 census (Bindhani, 2021). Tamil Nadu, located in India's Southern Zone, is one of the largest states and has a significant tribal population, especially in Tiruvannamalai district, which is one of the most backward districts in the state.…”

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of a positive psychology intervention on the stress levels of tribal adolescents living in the Jawadhu Hills area of India. Tribal communities often have distinct socio-economic and cultural barriers that lead to increased stress levels among adolescents. To address this issue, a positive psychology intervention was implemented that included the use of approaches designed to enhance emotional well-being and resilience. The research used an experimental pre-post control group design and a purposive sampling strategy to assess changes in stress levels using standardized stress measurement instruments. Results showed that the positive psychology intervention dramatically reduced stress levels among tribal youth in the experimental group compared to the control group, from 22.53 to 14.27. Several implications have been raised in light of these findings. First, it is important to emphasize the urgent need for increased awareness of mental health issues among tribal youth. In addition, the use of skilled professional counselors for adolescents significantly alleviates their emotional concerns. It is also essential to tailor interventions to the cultural milieu of the tribal community, taking into account their own needs, values, and traditions. In addition, it is important that local governments, NGOs, and educational institutions work together to implement and sustain positive psychology interventions in tribal schools. Therefore, this research contributes significantly to the understanding of how positive psychology interventions can successfully reduce stress among marginalized tribal youth.

“…"Frankly, I want to go to college, but my family's economy is all-sufficient, so I have to choose not to continue my education (Interview with Marsini)." Family economic factors and support absence from parents are the main reasons for minimal presence of women in academic spaces (Bindhani, 2021;Msila, 2014). In this case, Mr. Marsan dan Mrs. Simar see that financial factors are an aspect limiting their children's education.…”

Family financial factors and the women social construction are obstacles to women's education. Many of the women who dropped out of school were identified because they were unable to build two-way discussions, so negotiations related to education were never accommodated. This study examines and analyses how women negotiate with parents regarding family culture and economy dynamics, prospects for women, and how to shift them into joint decisions. This qualitative study uses a phenomenological approach by conducting observations, interviews, and documentation studies. The results reveal that some young women from low-income families can continue their education to the tertiary level. Their ability to survive and negotiate with parents and other family members can resolve financial problems and patriarchal culture. Parents who initially did not support them, in turn, encouraged their daughters to continue their education with the consequence of having to work because the family's economy could not cover college costs. These findings indicate that so far gender discrimination in women's education, related to finance and culture, still occurs massively in rural community entities, and this requires cooperative efforts and intense communication to find the best solution. Keywords: Poverty, Women's Education, Gender, Liman Benawi Abstrak Faktor keuangan keluarga dan konstruksi sosial perempuan menjadi penghambat pendidikan perempuan. Banyak perempuan yang putus sekolah teridentifikasi karena tidak mampu membangun diskusi dua arah, sehingga negosiasi terkait pendidikan tidak pernah terakomodasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat dan menganalisis bagaimana perempuan bernegosiasi dengan orang tua mengenai dinamika budaya dan ekonomi keluarga, prospek perempuan, dan bagaimana menggesernya menjadi keputusan bersama. Penelitian kualitatif ini menggunakan pendekatan fenomenologi dengan melakukan observasi, wawancara, dan studi dokumentasi. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa sebagian remaja putri dari keluarga miskin dapat melanjutkan pendidikan ke jenjang perguruan tinggi. Kemampuan mereka bertahan untuk bernegosiasi dengan orang tua dan anggota keluarga lainnya membuat masalah keuangan dan budaya patriarki dapat teratasi. Orang tua yang awalnya tidak mendukung, pada gilirannya mendorong anak perempuannya untuk melanjutkan pendidikan dengan konsekuensi harus bekerja karena ekonomi keluarga tidak mampu menutupi biaya kuliah. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa selama ini diskriminasi gender dalam pendidikan perempuan, terkait keuangan dan budaya, masih terjadi secara masif di entitas masyarakat pedesaan dan hal ini memerlukan upaya kerjasama dan komunikasi yang intens untuk mencari solusi terbaik.
