Cette communauté a été confrontée à un manque d’accès général et à une marginalisation, en partie dus à la période du colonialisme britannique, durant laquelle des incompréhensions culturelles liées aux coutumes des communautés et des tribus se sont multipliées.
Les différentes initiatives de l’Académie Adivasi - campagnes actives, formations des locaux, actions de sensibilisation à la conservation culturelle – ont abouti à de nombreux résultats positifs, notamment la tenue d’importants débats politiques et l’autonomisation de la communauté.
The estimate of 60 million is based on the field research done by the DNT Rights Action Group from 1998 to 2007 culminating in the drafting of the TAG Report.

The author was the Chairperson of TAG and the author of the TAG Report.
The population of Denotified and Nomadic Tribes can only be estimated on the basis of the 1931 Census which was the last census to have clearly enumerated all nomadic and semi-nomadic communities in India.

It also proposes that the sustainability of an intervention will be ensured by enhancing the community’s capability to internalize the twin perspective.
These latter were ‘notified’ as ‘criminal’ during the colonial period (1871 Criminal Tribes Act: Devy, 2007: 14-20; Schwarz, 2010: 9-10), and subsequently ‘denotified’ (1952-56) soon after Independence.
They are now known as ‘Denotified and Nomadic Tribes’ (DNTs).
