Abstract

This paper presentation is an attempt to understand the challenges and issues in protecting livelihood assets in relation to forest gathering of tribal communities in Kerala. The concept of protection of livelihood assets is one of the core concept of livelihood recovery processes necessitated basically in the event of calamities and other adverse events. The guidance note published by the UNDP on recovery processes is a detailed document on this topic. Forest gathering in Kerala is slowly dying out and is in a stage warranting immediate intervention for revival as if it is affected by adverse events. This study is therefore concentrated on identifying the livelihood assets based on Sustainable Livelihood Framework (SLF), which is a tool developed based on Sustainable Livelihood Approach (SLA) formulated by Chambers & Conway, in 1991. The assets thus identified, in the broad classes of Human, Social, Natural Physical and Financial assets, are Skilled Human resources, Aboriginal Knowledge and Gathering Skills, Tribal Cooperatives and other self-help groups, Forest resources, Forest Dwelling Rights, other related Infrastructure Facilities and Cash Assistances. Each of this assets are discussed primarily based on hands-on experience and exposure of the paper presenter as an official associated with the operations of tribal cooperative sector in Kerala for a period of 5 years and wherever necessary historical data, related literatures and governmental reports are relied. Based on the discussions, reviews, and analysis of data, this paper put forth its findings and conclusions to the intended audience for necessary remedial steps and future studies.

小林产品采集与部落生计资产的可持续性——喀拉拉邦的挑战与问题
本文介绍的是一个尝试,以了解在喀拉拉邦部落社区的森林采集有关的保护生计资产的挑战和问题。生计资产保护概念是发生灾害和其他不利事件时基本必需的生计恢复过程的核心概念之一。开发计划署出版的关于恢复进程的指导说明是关于这一专题的详细文件。喀拉拉邦的森林采集正在慢慢消亡,正处于一个需要立即干预以恢复的阶段,就像受到不利事件的影响一样。因此,本研究的重点是基于可持续生计框架(SLF)来识别生计资产,该框架是基于钱伯斯和康威于1991年制定的可持续生计方法(SLA)而开发的工具。在人力、社会、自然物质和金融资产的广泛类别中,这样确定的资产是熟练的人力资源、土著知识和采集技能、部落合作社和其他自助团体、森林资源、森林居住权、其他相关基础设施设施和现金援助。本文主要根据作者作为喀拉拉邦部落合作部门负责人的5年实践经验和经验,以及必要的历史数据、相关文献和政府报告进行讨论。在对数据进行讨论、回顾和分析的基础上,本文提出了研究结果和结论,以便读者采取必要的补救措施和进一步的研究。

期刊介绍: South Asian Journal of Business and Management Cases (SAJBMC) is a peer-reviewed, tri-annual journal of Birla Institute of Management Technology, Greater Noida (India). The journal aims to provide a space for high-quality original research or analytical cases, evidence-based case studies, comparative studies on industry sectors, products, and practical applications of management concepts. The journal likes to publish problem-solving, decisional and applied types of cases. Such cases must have linkage with theory, at least one dilemma (also known as case issue) and a protagonist around whom the case issue will revolve. Publication of pure research, applied research and field studies with empirical data do not fall under the domain of SAJBMC. Fictitious cases are not welcome.
