Abstract

This study explores the socio-economic impacts of market access on tribal individuals across different ranges in Coimbatore District. It examines four case studies representing various socio-economic backgrounds: Papammal from the Karamadai Range, Kandhasamy from the Periyanaikepalayam Range, Valli from the Coimbatore Range, and Nanjammal from the Bolambatty Range. Through detailed analysis, the study highlights the challenges and benefits of market participation, including transportation difficulties, financial constraints, and the broader social transformations experienced by these individuals. The findings underscore the significant role of market access in enhancing awareness, skill development, health, gender equality, and community development among tribal communities.
