Dr Made Gowda is a senior research associate at the Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment. The 48-year-old lets out a laugh when recounting his past; he failed classes and dropped out several times before earning a PhD.
Gowda belongs to the Soliga community and is an exception within it. He is among the first five children of this Adivasi community to have learnt to read and write. After spending time in and out of forests, picking up languages other than his native Sholaga and acquainting himself with the mannerisms of people residing outside his village, he now studies his own community.
