Description

Traditional knowledge (TK) has contributed immensely to shaping development and human well-being.

Its influence spans a variety of sectors, including agriculture, health, education and governance.

However, in today's world, TK is increasingly underrepresented or under-utilised.

Further, while the applicability of TK to human and environmental welfare is well-recognized, collated information on how TK contributes to different sectors is not easily accessible.

This book focuses on the relevance of TK to key environment- and development-related sectors, discusses the current debates within each of these sectors and presents suggestions as to how TK can be effectively integrated with conventional science and policy.

A valuable resource to researchers, academics and policymakers, Traditional knowledge in policy and practice provides a comprehensive overview of TK, and its links and contributions to social, economic, environmental, ethical and political issues.
