Indigenous Knowledge
Indigenous Knowledge refers to the understanding and insights developed by Indigenous peoples over generations through their experiences with the land, environment, and community. This knowledge encompasses various aspects, including traditional practices, languages, and cultural beliefs, which are often passed down orally.
It plays a crucial role in sustainable resource management and biodiversity conservation. By integrating Indigenous Knowledge with modern science, communities can address environmental challenges more effectively. This collaboration can enhance efforts in areas such as climate change, agriculture, and wildlife conservation, benefiting both Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations.
