Indigenous Knowledge (IK) reviews cutting-edge research and links
theory with practice to further our understanding of this important
approach's contribution to natural resource management. It
addresses IK's potential in solving issues such as coping with
change, ensuring global food supply for a growing population,
reversing environmental degradation and promoting sustainable
practices. It is increasingly recognised that IK, which has
featured centrally in resource management for millennia, should
play a significant part in today's programmes that seek to increase
land productivity and food security while ensuring environmental
conservation. By drawing together strands of biocultural diversity
research into natural resources management, this book: - Provides
an overview of conceptual issues around IK and its contributions to
sustainable agriculture and environmental conservation; - Addresses
key themes via case studies from bioculturally diverse regions of
the world; - Displays a wide range of methodologies and outlines a
possible agenda to guide future work. An invaluable resource for
researchers and postgraduate students in environmental science and
natural resources management, this book is also an informative read
for development practitioners and undergraduates in agriculture,
forestry, geography, anthropology and environmental studies.
