1. Background<br />
YASHADA is the apex Administrative. Training Institute of the Government of<br />
Maharashtra. Over years, those 50,000 officers have been imparted training by<br />
YASHADA in various sphere of development administration. YASHADA has a unique<br />
blend of experienced bureaucrats and academicians servicing as the faculty members,<br />
which helps in synthesizing the field experience and conceptual vision of development<br />
administration into an integrated and inter disciplinary approach to training. In addition,<br />
YASHADA has now established a well equipped Research & Documentation (R &0)<br />
Center, which undertakes applied and policy oriented research in development<br />
administration and helps in continuous upgrading and enriching of YASHADA's training.<br />
However, hitherto the Tribal Development sector had remained underrepresented in<br />
YASHADA's training activities. In recent times, this lacuna was noticed especially in the<br />
wake of the malnutrition problems in tribal areas of Melghat.<br />
In this background there was a suggestion that separate cell of 'Center for Tribal<br />
Development, training and Research' should be set up at YASHADA which will<br />
holistically cater to various needs in the Tribal Development sector. The center will serve<br />
a pivotal role in bridging gaps in Tribal Development in terms of capacity building of the<br />
personnel involved in tribal development and policy advocacy through research. Further,<br />
as the activities of the center expand the possibilities of financial support from the<br />
government can be explored.<br />
