and expedient solution using limited resources usually found it countries like India, China, Brazil, Kenya, Philippines,etc where there is mind boggling diversity or pervasive scarcity but, is still exploded with mind boggling interconnectivity in this glocal world.

Jugaad and its need in contemporary times:
JUGAAD has always been around.As a design and lifestyle principle, Jugaad starts with everyday improvisations But, its also an undeveloped force within the way we approach almost every activity in our life from games to design, architecture to fashion, from city planning to a political resolution. The whole notion of working around conventional methodologies sees like a way of breaking through political tyranny, convincing everyone that their limitations are not inherent but rather applied by external forces like government, climate, religion, media, entertainment, mythology, etc.
