The challenges
Amarwara is located in between the mountains of Satpuda, confined between Dulha Dev Ghati and Bhumka Ghati. It has a market for Chironji / Charoli, which is supplied from here to points all over India. It also belongs to the tribal belt of MP.
Agriculture is dependent on rainfall, and farmers are only able to grow 2 yields per year. Due to the tribal belt, people are hesitant to send their children outside the district for job placements, although they know that there are very few vacancies and jobs available in the local market. To motivate and convince families to allow youngsters to relocate to access jobs in any other state and district was a big challenge of SEDI.
