Understanding the Tribal Disease Burden and Poverty Challenges: A Case Study of Cholanaikkan Tribal Community in Kerala
Abstract
Multidimensional Poverty Index tries to assess the multidimensional aspects of the poverty especially in the developing countries. The new index used primarily the secondary data and has many difficulties .No study is carried out in India considering all the indicators mentioned in the original MPI based on purely primary data. So there should be a research gap which demands more research works and case studies. If the Multidimensionality of poverty is agreeable then a new index is essential without much limitation and with much applicability. This study focused upon this problem. It took primary data and found out the MPI of the most vulnerable section of Kerala, which is taken as the best example for Human Development and social indicators by researchers and economists in the world.
