Abstract	Scheduled tribes constitute a small proportion of India's total population and remain marginalized in many aspects of society. Despite constitutional provisions aimed at improving their status, these communities continue to face numerous challenges. Tribal women play a significant role in contributing to family income through hard work, but they are constrained by limited income-generating opportunities. This financial limitation often results in the need for more family members to engage in labor, leading to a reluctance to send children to formal schools. The overall low educational attainment within these communities contributes to poor awareness of basic health conditions. Consequently, tribal women lag both tribal men and women in the general population in terms of education, employment, and health. This theoretical paper seeks to identify the specific challenges faced by tribal women and propose strategies to address these issues effectively. The findings aim to inform the implementation of targeted projects to improve their socio-economic conditions.
