The term "Indigenous Knowledge" (IK) has gained widespread global usage, with various interpretations depending on the context. Generally, it refers to the local or traditional knowledge of indigenous peoples passed down through oral traditions from past generations. Broadly speaking, the knowledge used by local people to make a living in a particular environment. Preserving Indigenous Knowledge id of great importance in the face of contemporary socio-political issues, crucial for maintaining cultural diversity, promoting sustainable development, and ensuring the well-being of Indigenous communities. Indigenous Knowledge refers to the cumulative knowledge, practices, and innovations developed by Indigenous peoples over generations, often rooted in their close connection to the environment, community, and spirituality. Traditional knowledge is at the core of indigenous identity, culture, languages, heritage and livelihoods, and its transmission from one generation to the next must be protected, preserved and encouraged. Managing it has become vital input in sustainable development programmes. Historically, indigenous knowledge has been underestimated in the management of information, t, with a tendency to prioritize recorded knowledge over unrecorded indigenous knowledge in libraries and educational settings. However, there is a growing realization that indigenous knowledge plays a crucial role in national development as well as the knowledge management environment has led to the growth of interest in preserving and managing it. Several International Conventions and Agreements address the subject of Traditional Knowledge, and the rights of indigenous and local communities on their knowledge, such as the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and related protocols (Nagoya Protocol), the U.N. Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The Permanent Forum is an advisory body to the Economic and Social Council established by resolution 2000/22 on 28 July 2000. The Permanent Forum was the outcome of a resolution by the Commission of Human Rights in 2000 that was adopted by the Economic and Social Council. The Permanent Forum has a mandate to “discuss indigenous issues within the mandate of the Council relating to economic and social development, culture, the environment, education, health and human rights”. The human relationship with the environment presents anthropological, ethno-biological, and ethno-ecological insights. For Indigenous Peoples, the human rights regime and the biodiversity regime provide particular rights. A rising stream of research points towards the fact that Indigeneity could offer an alternative model of governance to neoliberalism, or to market and economic-centric approaches in general, offering appropriate solutions to some of the main failures of neoliberalism relevant to the TK context – solutions such as fostering decolonisation and the meaningful development of societies, especially with respect to contemporary strategies of resilience, adaptation, and protection of the vulnerable.
