This book discusses the pivotal role of African indigenous
knowledge systems (AIKS) in promoting, enhancing, and sustaining
livelihoods in Africa. The authors argue that AIKS are of central
importance in the development of sustainable livelihoods,
particularly in rural communities. In their analysis, they draw on
interdisciplinary research in the fields of agriculture, cultural
and indigenous studies, development studies, education, geography,
political science, and sociology. The objective is to make AIKS
more applicable to mainstream educational and development agendas
in Africa, a pressing issue in areas where Eurocentric scientific
practices are cost prohibitive. The Dynamic of African Indigenous
Knowledge Systems will be of interest to development professionals,
policy makers, academics, students, and anyone interested in the
field of AIKS and sustainable development in rural communities.
