The significance of indigenous knowledge in conservation lies in its potential to enhance biodiversity management strategies. Indigenous communities possess rich, place-based understanding of their environments, accumulated over generations of interaction with local ecosystems. This knowledge includes sustainable practices, species behavior, and ecological relationships that can inform contemporary conservation efforts. Recognizing and integrating indigenous perspectives fosters more effective and culturally relevant management practices. Collaborative approaches can lead to improved outcomes in biodiversity conservation while respecting and valuing cultural traditions and practices essential to the identities of indigenous peoples.
