Tribal Health and Wellbeing in Meghalaya, India

First History Lessons: Food and Eating

This book is the outcome of a project by Martin Luther Christian University, supported by Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung, to create a comprehensive curriculum on the health of indigenous and tribal communities in Meghalaya. Drawing on fieldwork across 12 villages and insights from tribal healers, public health professionals, and academics, the curriculum centers the lived realities of the Khasi, Jaintia, and Garo communities. It fills a critical gap in tribal health education by combining traditional knowledge with public health frameworks. Intended for students and practitioners alike, this curriculum offers a vital, culturally grounded resource for anyone working on health and wellbeing in tribal areas.
