Abstract
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 globally accepted goals adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. They aim to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure peace and prosperity for all. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are applicable to all countries, including those with significant populations of tribal and indigenous peoples. Development for scheduled tribes must align with the SDGs to ensure their inclusion and protection of their rights. There are several hindrances to the development of tribal groups in India. Lack of Education, many tribal communities have low levels of education and limited access to educational opportunities, which undermines their ability to participate in the broader development process. Development for these groups must align with the SDGs to ensure their inclusion and protection of their rights. This study focuses on the sustainability development among the tribal people in India based on the secondary data drawn from the official website of Ministry of Tribal Affairs and other published sources of various survey agencies, journals, books and other periodicals Tribal communities are often underrepresented in political and decision-making processes, and their voices are often excluded from discussions and decisions that affect their lives and well-being. Tribal communities in India often face significant health disparities, including high rates of malnutrition, infectious diseases, and other health problems. The cultural heritage and traditions of tribal communities are often threatened by the forces of globalization, including the loss of traditional languages, knowledge systems, and cultural practices. Addressing these hindrances is crucial for ensuring the sustainable development and well-being of tribal communities in India. This study suggests a multi-faceted approach that recognizes the complexity of these challenges, and involves the active participation and leadership of tribal communities themselves.
