Indigenous Ways of Knowing and the Study of Environmental Change

2009

Berkes, F.

Description

Drawing on the author's research experiences in Canada, this article examines the possible contributions of traditional ecological knowledge to better understand the impacts of climate change on the sustainability of aquatic species in New Zealand. The author raises two important points: 1) the examination of traditional knowledge should be a process rather than just content; 2) the debate should be reframed as a collaborative partnership between science and traditional knowledge, emphasizing co-production of knowledge rather than competition between science and traditional knowledge.
