Our culture and identity are strongly influenced by our food, which reflects our geographic origins through the ingenious use of locally available ingredients. For tribal people whose lifestyles are intricately entwined with nature and its resources, food systems are deeply rooted in local culture and customs. Their food culture demonstrates a reciprocal relationship with nature where they have managed to support both life and the environment.
