Indigenous Peoples

Over the course of history, indigenous peoples and their communities have developed lifestyles and cultures that are intricately linked to nature. The areas of high biodiversity in which they commonly live are deeply embedded in their productive activities and spiritual lives. 

Through this close relationship with nature, most Indigenous Peoples have developed, and are still developing, a wealth of traditional knowledge for managing their environment in a sustainable way.
