- It offers a practical, step-by-step approach to institutionalizing community participation in the transition process.
- This framework is a key step toward ensuring a just and sustainable transition for communities that have developed alongside mining operations over decades.
- The framework is supported by a suite of actionable tools, templates, and field-tested methodologies tailored to the Indian context.
- Under it, special emphasis is placed on gender inclusivity, the representation of vulnerable groups, and alignment with Panchayati Raj Institutions, ensuring that the transition is equitable and locally relevant.
