Indigenous knowledge govenance framework : a holistic model for indigenous knowledge management

Development organisations acknowledge and recognise the role of Indigenous Knowledge (IK) in solutions to local problems. It is a resource that can help produce more and better food, maintain healthy lives, share wealth, prevent conflict, manage local affairs, and thus contribute to global solutions...
