Paragraph 26px – Indigenous Peoples have been stewards of lands, waters and oceans for generations anticipating and responding to climate variability and change.
Paragraph 18px – There is increasing recognition link in text of the value of community expertise, plurality of knowledges, including Indigenous Knowledges (IK) and Local Knowledges (LK) for informed climate resilience pathways. IK & LK’s have value for framing adaptation across genders and generations of society quite apart from its place-based local practices.
There is a growing consensus among climate scholars and practitioners that climate adaptation strategies and policies should use the best available knowledge, with exchange and interaction between IK / LK and Western knowledge. Dialogue between a range of knowledge-holders offers opportunities for effective and context-specific climate adaptation planning and through integration of these discourses for transformational adaptation.
- Ways in which Indigenous ways of learning and communication including storytelling and experience in sustainable natural resources and biodiversity management serve as foundations for effective climate adaptation.
- Examples of the integration of IK and LK in the discourse of climate change, policy formulation and implementation: opportunities and challenges.
- Examples of IK & LK being mainstreamed into adaptation planning and action as a climate justice issue.
- Cases where the underpinnings of Indigenous worldviews can provide new insights for adaptation and challenge dominant modes of practice.
