Resumen: | Intertwining the complementary perspectives on biological and cultural diversities, UNESCO brings together in this volume key papers from the Aichi experts meeting that explore the challenges of acquiring and passing on knowledge and practice in a wide array of indigenous communities from around the world. In this manner, it is hoped that UNESCO may advance international understandings of the complexities of sustaining the dynamism of indigenous knowledge in contemporary worlds. The book is organised into three sections. The first addresses the link between indigenous knowledge and indigenous language, and explores the opportunities this interconnection provides for understanding and countering declines in both. The second section examines how the loss of indigenous knowledge due to insensitive school section explores the need for the revitalisation of indigenous ways of learning, generally outside of a classroom environment, and how this may be practically viable in modern contexts. |
