ADS and SOBTI have used various SAS tools for a study on Gaothan or village land rights issue of the Katkari tribal community while DRCSC and Laya have used SAS tools in their work on sustainable agriculture and forestry. ADS and DRCSC have also organised over 20 training programmes in the use of SAS tools for organisations in different parts of India.
