dc.description.abstract | The project explored customary laws, values and practices relating to traditional knowledge (TK) and biodiversity within indigenous and local communities in Peru, Panama, India, China and Kenya. It developed local tools for protecting TK and biocultural systems. The concept of ‘Collective biocultural heritage’ (CBCH) linked the case studies while providing a guiding framework for the project. Access and Benefit-Sharing (ABS) underpins the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) Article 10, and the realisation of biodiversity conservation and sustainable use. An effective way to protect knowledge and rights over resources is by strengthening indigenous legal systems, and through governance at the local level. | en |
