As an AI language model, I do not have access to conduct research or collect data on the role of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) in promoting sustainable well-being among Scheduled Tribal Communities in the Kolli Hills of Tamil Nadu. However, I can provide a general overview of the methodology that could be used to investigate this topic.

  • Literature review: The first step would be to conduct a thorough literature review to identify the existing knowledge and research gaps related to TEK and its role in promoting sustainable well-being among indigenous communities in the Kolli Hills of Tamil Nadu. This would involve searching for relevant articles, books, reports, and other sources of information.
  • Fieldwork: To gain a deeper understanding of TEK and its impact on the sustainable well-being of indigenous communities in the Kolli Hills, fieldwork would be necessary. This would involve visiting the region and conducting interviews, focus group discussions, and participant observation with members of the indigenous communities.
  • Data analysis: The data collected through fieldwork and literature review would be analyzed using qualitative research methods such as content analysis and grounded theory. The aim would be to identify key themes and patterns related to TEK and its role in promoting sustainable well-being among indigenous communities.
  • Policy analysis: A policy analysis could be conducted to examine the extent to which TEK is incorporated into forest and natural resource management policies in the region. This would involve analyzing policy documents and interviewing policymakers and other stakeholders.
  • Ethical considerations: The research would need to adhere to ethical guidelines and principles, including obtaining informed consent from participants and ensuring the confidentiality and anonymity of the data collected.1
