QUESTION 1.1
Indigenous knowledge refers to the body of understandings, skills, values and belief systems
that have been developed by local communities over long periods through continuous
interaction with their natural and social environments. It is knowledge that is rooted in
specific cultural contexts and transmitted from generation to generation through oral
traditions, practice, observation and lived experience. Unlike formal scientific knowledge,
indigenous knowledge is often embedded in everyday activities such as farming, healing,
conflict resolution, environmental management and social organisation. It is closely linked to
language, spirituality, customs and community identity (Zhou & Brown, 2015
