A prospective study of tribal population in ODISHA, INDIA

Outline of presentation Geographical location of Odisha & distribution of tribal population Background information of Tribals Socio-demographic characteristics of tribal population Particularly Vulnerable Tribal groups ( PVTGs) – Distribution & key features Socio-cultural distinctness of tribals in Odisha Important means of livelihood among tribal groups Health system issues Future prospects

Location of Odisha Odisha, being located in the eastern region of the country, hosts 4.2 crores of people (census 2011 About 485 km of coastline along Bay of Bengal 155,707 sq km geographical area Literacy rate: 75% with female literacy: 64% sex ratio : 979 females/1000 males Source Population census 2011 & Wikipedia

Rationale…. The tribal population, still being the under privileged section of the society, focus needs to be laid upon their prevailing health status

Health Profile of tribal population in Odisha The infant mortality (78.7 per 1000 live births) and under five mortality (136.3 per 1000 live births) rates among tribal population stand at an alarmingly higher rate Analysis of nutritional indicators - any anemia (80.1%) and under nutrition (54.4) are highly prevalent in children Perspective of maternal health – Only 17.3% of expectant mothers were attended by a health care professional and 11.7% delivered in a health care facility *An analysis of health status of Orissa in specific reference to health equity. Available at http://www.nrhmorissa.gov.in/writereaddata/Upload/Documents/An%20analysis%20of%20health%20status%20of%20Orissa%20in%20specific%20reference%20to%20health%20equity.pdf

Health system issues – tribal population Shortage of skilled human resource Inadequate infrastructure Poor logistics and supply arrangements Lack of ST specific data like disease burden, morbidity & mortality profile, etc. Absence of Private Sector Poor availability of critical emergency services Poor Monitoring & Supportive Supervision Poor Governance, High absenteeism & unresponsive health system

Future prospects…. Area sensitive and tribe specific Health planning given the fact that there are about 700 tribals groups in india and about 62 in Odisha To bridge the scientific knowledge gap, health care should give paramount importance to spreading ‘ Health Literacy’ by way of mass educational methods, folk media, modern media and school curriculum More focused research should be done to identify the causative factors for meagre health indicators A focused continuum of care approach - from early childhood to reproductive age group, would bridge the gap in health status of the tribal population Strengthen community mobilization and build up the capacities of frontline workers in tribal areas to ensure effective delivery of basic health services and increased utilization by tribal communities
