My research will make the case for embedding Adivasi epistemologies to achieve climate justice in India. Adivasis are the indigenous communities of India that are dependent on forests and play a critical role in the protection of forests and biodiversity. My research will examine to what extent the existing structures of exploitation and dispossession of Adivasis from their land and forests are reproduced by climate laws and policies in India. My research will argue that climate justice in the Adivasi context can be legally and politically attained only when it is understood along with democratic forest governance
