FROM THE INDIAN STATES
In this section, we have organised EQUATIONS work from a geographic region perspective, as building networks of people and organisations concerned with the impacts of tourism is done and understood from this perspective. The states are both geographical and political units. Tourism policy in India is both a central and state subject. Within each State or Union Territory we work also across each of the thematic areas of ‘Child and Tourism’, ‘Ecosystems, Communities and Tourism’, ‘Globalisation, Impacts and Tourism’, ‘Governance, Law and Tourism’, ‘Tourism Education’ and ‘Women and Tourism’. As you will see, depending on the context and our abilities we work on varied issues across geographies. Again, depending on the nature of struggles, impacts of tourism and the strength of the networks we are able to build, we research, campaign and advocate on issues that then emerge in a State. We have had a long history of engagement with South Indian states of Kerala, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh and with Goa. In the past years, there has been an increase in our engagement with the central Indian states of Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh, with the hill states of Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. So has the engagement with the Eastern, North East regions of India and the Andaman and Nicobar islands.
