About The Book

How can we live well with others? How can local connections to place and past generations strengthen our cultural, political and economic futures globally?

Indigenous Knowledge: Global Perspectives brings together leading scholars from Australia and the Asia-Pacific to explore how Indigenous knowledge tackles common challenges in governance and research, environmental sustainability and cultural diversity.

Contributors reveal how Indigenous knowledge, while distinct, can inform new collaborations that respect and build on local wisdom and initiative, sparking understandings of identity and place that are often overlooked in mainstream scholarship.

This book ignites insightful conversations, opens new ways of understanding Indigenous knowledge, and honours the richness and resilience of global Indigenous traditions.
