The correct answer is

Peace, Understanding and Inclusion

Karikot village in Bahraich received the Indian Subcontinent Responsible Tourism Award 2025 in the category of Peace, Understanding and Inclusion.

The category rewards tourism that repairs relationships rather than simply generating income, and Karikot's case fits it because the village turned a landscape of human-wildlife conflict along the Katarniaghat forest into a community-run homestay and nature-tourism model. Local residents, including women's groups, became hosts and guides, so the forest changed from a source of loss into a source of livelihood, and the friction between villagers and conservation eased.

The other categories recognise different achievements. Increasing local sourcing rewards buying supplies from local producers, managing waste rewards reduction and disposal systems, and climate adaptation and resilience rewards preparing a destination for climate risk.

Hence, the answer is Peace, Understanding and Inclusion.
