About the Book

Indigenous knowledge is the comprehensive body of knowledge that locals accumulate from life experience, unofficial research, and close observation of their surroundings within a particular culture. It connects the entirety of nature and the components that sustain life to the survival of every human being. Additionally, it gives specific community conditions in respect to the environment and offers workable answers to people's problems. As a result, by preserving indigenous knowledge systems, indigenous knowledge may provide value to the community by offering innovative solutions to social, environmental, and economic issues. Resurgence and Revalorization of Indigenous Knowledge Systems in the Contemporary Society explores the role of indigenous knowledge in the contemporary society. Furthermore, it discusses the importance of preserving and sharing indigenous knowledge for community development. Covering topics such as epistemic diversity, traditional load, and indigenous curricula, this book is an excellent resource for sociologists, policymakers, government officials, environmentalists, educators, records managers, professionals, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more.
