Abstract: The mental health of tribal societies, particularly in regions like Bastar, is a critical yet underexplored domain that warrants targeted psychological initiatives. Bastar, a tribal-dominated district in India, faces unique socio-cultural, economic, and political challenges that significantly impact the psychological well-being of its inhabitants. These challenges include displacement, marginalization, cultural disintegration, poverty, and exposure to conflict situations. Despite these adversities, traditional tribal communities have developed unique resilience mechanisms deeply rooted in their cultural practices, belief systems, and communal lifestyles.
