File info

[edit]
Caption This is the village of Chikli. Tens of thousands of such villages exist in India. The main village is surrounded by smaller villages (foreground) known as wadis, which are often inhabited by the lower caste of people. These people have in many cases become Buddhists to escape the label untouchable; such wadis are therefore known as Buddhwadis. The Rural Development Project is ongoing in Chikli and in smaller villages that are a 15-20 minute walk away. Patterns of land holding, illiteracy, traditions and superstitions, and economic insecurity and self-interest must be overcome by project team members.
