Abstract

Natural resources are vital for the planet in their given state without human intervention. When they get depleted it will lead to bigger problems such as global warming eventually leading to climate change, water scarcity, lack of proper electricity. Sustainability is truly the need of the hour, more than ever. The need to preserve and protect the resources has become vitally important. When it comes to the rich greenery and plentiful resources of the ecosystem, Odisha is undoubtedly one of the states that is exhilarating. The state is known for its diversity and variety in folklore such as dance, arts, crafts, folktales, folk performances which have a deep connection with the theme of sustainability. This paper aims to illustrate how various types of Odisha's folklore such as traditions, rituals and festivals, through their harmony with nature, educate the people about the concept of sustainability. In this paper, our aim is to highlight the role of folklore of Odisha in promoting the theme of sustainability. This this paper makes a noteworthy contribution towards the achievement of the concept of Sustainable Development Goals established by United Nations.
