Re: [datameet] Spatial data for social issues in Maharashtra

2018-01-30 Thread Peter Mayer

Hi Dhaval,

    There is a chapter on farmer suicides in the NCRB's /Accidental 
Deaths and Suicides, 2015 /(we've been waiting for a year for the 2016 
report...).  You can find it at: http://ncrb.gov.in/


    I wrote a paper on farmer suicides for the /Economic and Political 
Weekly/ (


“Thinking Clearly about Suicide in India - I: Desperate Housewives, 
Despairing Farmers” /Economic and Political Weekly/, April 2, 2016, Vol. 
LI, No. 14, pp. 44-55 
http://www.epw.in/journal/2016/14/thinking-clearly-about-suicide-india.html). 
It may be relevant for your purposes.


best wishes,

Peter

Hello

Do we have any data on child marriages, farmer suicides, or any other 
social issue in Maharashtra? I am helping a workshop here in Nashik in 
which I am helping them understand the power of maps. The participants 
are girls from the villages near by learning basics of research, data 
analysis and visual representation, so we thought if there was 
contextual data that I can map, they may be able to connect it more.


Does any one have data or can point me to some URL for that?

Thanks
