On 10th September 2025, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs launched the beta version of “Adi Sanskriti”, a digital learning platform, during the National Conference on Adi Karmayogi Abhiyan at Bharat Mandapam(New Delhi).

  • “Adi Sanskriti” was billed as the world’s first digital university for tribal culture, serving as a one-stop platform for learning, documentation, and market access.
  • The platform is aimed at preserving and promoting tribal artforms, supporting livelihoods, and connecting communities with the world.
  • The platform comprised three major components:
    1. Adi Vishwavidyalaya, offering 45 immersive courses in dance, painting, crafts, music, and folklore;
    2. Adi Sampada, a socio-cultural repository housing over 5,000 curated documents on paintings, dance, textiles, artefacts, and livelihoods;
    3. Adi Haat, an online marketplace linked with TRIFED for tribal artisans to sell their products directly.
