Um þessa rafbók
Indigenous Science Today explores the integration of indigenous knowledge systems (IKS) with Western science, arguing that this collaboration is vital for addressing complex global challenges.
The book highlights the philosophical differences and practical applications of both systems, advocating for a synergistic relationship that respects cultural knowledge and promotes sustainable solutions.
It emphasizes that IKS is holistic, place-based, and intergenerational, contrasting with the often reductionist approach of Western science.
This integrated knowledge can be applied to environmental conservation and healthcare, offering innovative approaches that are both scientifically sound and culturally appropriate.
