Paper long abstract:

In the Globalization process the "free market" economy, "outsourcing economy based on labour skills for human capital", "global cities" have attracted MNCs to establish factories and offices in India, resulting into positive impacts such as development of services including information and communication technologies and increase in the share of world trade, foreign currency reserves, average growth rate of exports and so on. India is a country with largest number of chronically poor people and is one of the signatories in Millennium Development Goals in UN Millennium Assembly in 2000 in global poverty reduction. Later India initiated International Development Movement through public funding towards global poverty reduction. On the contrary globalization has been over-exploiting the natural wealth, without living anything for the indigenous population who are lacking social or economic choices to make profits in the investment in the market economy. To bring these large sections of the populations into the process of globalization, it is essential to look into the opportunity (economic growth and employment), empowerment (rights and democracy) and Security (Social support, social protection, law and order) with the improving governance and inclusive globalization. The Government of India has attempted these by implementing NREGS, RTI act, Forest Rights Act and PESA 1996.

This paper will discuss the various approaches for the tribal development in the present day imagining inclusive Globalization for tackling poverty and the effects of climate change with the enhancement of the capacities of the marginalized tribal poor to cope up with globalization effects for livelihood securities
