This book highlights the diverse range of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) practices that conserve natural resources sustainably. Traditional ecological knowledge (TEK), alongside terms like indigenous knowledge and native science, has gained prominence in the field of international development and adaptive management. In the face of unprecedented global degradation and decline in ecosystem services, affecting human well-being over the past 50 years, there is a growing recognition of the role of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) practices and systems of local communities in ensuring the sustainable utilization and management of resources.

In this context, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of the significant aspects of natural resources in Asia. It is structured into three sections, each delving into different dimensions of indigenous ecological knowledge of resource management in Asia. The first section explores the concept of traditional ecological knowledge, the second section examines the systematic documentation of TEK practices, and the third section addresses policy for governance. This book provides a critical description and explanation of indigenous knowledge about resource management. It serves as an invaluable resource for undergraduate, postgraduate, and research scholars in India and internationally. Moreover, this book is designed to cover all aspects of natural resources and assist administrators and policymakers in leveraging indigenous knowledge for effective resource management.
