In the wake of colonialism and imperialism, dialogue between indigenous knowledges and Western epistemology has broken down time and again. However, in recent decades the broader indigenous struggle for rights and recognition has led to more understanding of indigenous knowledges, and in 2015 the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined the importance of indigenous engagement in contributing to the implementation of the agenda. Drawing on experiences and field work from Africa, Asia, Latin America and Europe, this book brings together authors who explore social, educational, institutional and ecological sustainability related to indigenous knowledges in greater depth. As the decolonizing debate gathers pace within mainstream academic discourse, this book will be an important contribution to scholars across development studies, environmental studies, education, and political ecology"-- ER -
