Tribal women in Eastern Madhya Pradesh play a vital role in household management, agriculture, and community development; however, their access to Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) remains limited. This study examines the socioeconomic factors influencing ICT adoption and utilization among tribal women in the region. The analysis explores access to mobile phones, internet services, digital literacy, and information sources related to education, healthcare, agriculture, and livelihood opportunities. Findings indicate that ICTs contribute significantly to enhancing awareness, improving communication, facilitating access to government schemes, and supporting income-generating activities. However, challenges such as low literacy levels, inadequate digital infrastructure, economic constraints, and sociocultural barriers restrict effective ICT usage. The study highlights the need for targeted digital literacy programs, improved connectivity, and inclusive policies to empower tribal women and promote their socioeconomic development through greater ICT integration.
