Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This Open Access book provides a critical reflection into how indigenous cultures are attempting to adapt to climate change. Through detailed first-hand accounts, the book describes the unique challenges facing indigenous peoples in the context of climate change adaptation, governance, communication strategies, and institutional pressures. The book shows how current climate change terminologies and communication strategies often perpetuate the marginalisation of indigenous peoples and suggests that new approaches that prioritise Indigenous voices, agency and survival are required.The book first introduces readers to Indigenous peoples and their struggles related to climate change, describing the impacts of climate change on their everyday lives and the adaptation strategies currently undertaken to address them. These strategies are then detailed through case studies which focus on how Indigenous knowledge and practices have been used to respond to and cope withclimate change in a variety of environments, including urban settings. The book discusses specific governance challenges facing Indigenous peoples, and presents new methods for engagement that will bridge existing communication gaps to ensure Indigenous peoples are central to the implementation of climate change adaptation measures. This book is intended for an audience of Indigenous peoples, adaptation practitioners, academics, students, policy makers and government workers.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book offers a profound examination of how mountain ethnic groups and local communities, particularly those in the Tibetan regions of the Eastern Himalayas, utilize traditional knowledge to confront the growing challenges of climate change. It presents a comprehensive analysis of the ways in which local wisdom passed down through generations has informed climate adaptation strategies, ranging from agriculture to disaster management. By systematically categorizing traditional knowledge related to climate patterns, biodiversity, water management, and resource conservation, the book highlights its vital role in enhancing resilience to environmental stresses.Drawing from field research, the volume addresses the intersection of modern climate science and traditional knowledge, advocating for an integrative approach to climate adaptation. The author demonstrates that traditional knowledge systems, far from being relics of the past, are dynamic and continually evolving to meet new environmental realities. This work provides a valuable theoretical framework and methodological tools for future research, calling for greater recognition of the potential contributions of traditional knowledge in global climate policy and local-level interventions.By illustrating the enduring relevance of traditional knowledge, this book not only contributes to the academic discourse on climate change but also advocates for the preservation and application of ecological wisdom in creating sustainable climate solutions for the future.…
