Neuware - Indigenous knowledge plays a vital role in sustaining ecosystems, strengthening community resilience, and preserving cultural identity, yet it has long been marginalized by dominant global systems. Revitalizing and protecting this knowledge helps address modern challenges such as climate change, public health needs, equitable development, and more by drawing on place-based experience accumulated across generations. Integrating traditional practices with scientific methods and emerging technologies can create more sustainable, community-driven solutions while safeguarding cultural heritage.

Covering topics such as community-affixed curricula, knowledge autonomy, and urban heritage protection, this book is an excellent resource for academicians, postgraduate students, policymakers, practitioners, cultural institutions, and more.…
