However, little is known in Africa about what eect indigenous knowledge (IK) and local knowledge (LK) are having on climate change adaptation There is emerging evidence of the important role of indigenous knowledge for climate change adaptation. We then propose a framework for enhancing synthesis of these indigenous narratives of observed climate change The necessity to consider different knowledge systems in climate change research has been established in the fifth assessment report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Indigenous knowledge and local knowledge are crucial to address environmental impacts, such as climate change, where the uncertainty of outcome is high and a range of responses are required It deploys a bibliometric analysis to describe the connections between ILK and climatic change adaptation in Africa, complemented by an analysis of ILK literature and case studies We explore the connections among indigenous climate-related narratives, documented temperature changes, and climate change impact studies from the scientific literature. Their sustainable There is emerging evidence of the important role of indigenous knowledge for climate change adaptation. Indigenous peoples safeguardper cent of the world’s biodiversity while representingper cent of the world’s population. By Chris Baraniuk The Environmental Conservation and Climate Change Office (ECCCO), housed within the Native Women’s Association of Canada is the leading resource dedicated to researching and addressing the impacts of biodiversity and climate change on Indigenous women, children, youth, Two-Spirit and gender-diverse persons in Canada to climate change are taken incrementally by individuals, while planned adaptation is considered to be limited, frag-mented, and poorly governed (Berrang-Ford et al. Emerging studies in Africa have shifted the attention to indigenous knowledge (IK) to In this essay, we explore possible complementarities between indigenous and scientific knowledge systems, and discuss the potential for enhancing integration of indigenous observations of climate change with global assessments such as those of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) This paper explores the extent to which ILK has been used in climate change adaptation in Africa. Native peoples attuned to the natural world have long collected detailed environmental information. The necessity to consider different knowledge systems in climate change research has been established in the fifth assessment report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Indigenous people are often considered victims of climate change impact rather than agents of adaptation. b; Sietsma et al.). Now scientists are cataloging these observations and learning how they’re affecting Indigenous communities globally. While 8,  · Although the adoption of both indigenous and scientific knowledge to assist communities in adapting to climate change has received little investigation (De Caux et al.,), connecting multiple knowledge networks has the potential to significantly support climate change adaptation and preservation goals at various levels while providing Northern and Indigenous communities are: identifying opportunities to build local capacity to help understand and reduce the physical risks of changing climate conditions; gaining understanding of long-term trends and impacts of climate change by combining newly collected data with traditional knowledge to make relevant and pertinent isions Food & Environment. The necessity to consider different knowledge systems in climate change Indigenous knowledge and local knowledge are crucial to address environmental impacts, such as climate change, where the uncertainty of outcome is high and a range of responses are traditional and indigenous peoples’ knowledge contributes to climate change adaptation and how it can reinforce the resilience of vulnerable communities in climate hotspots. Keywords: climate change, observed impacts, indigenous knowledge, assessment, temperature change As highlighted in Chap, SDGis a isive call for the world to take crucial steps to tackle climate change and its requires integrating climate change into 7,  · Traditionally, Indigenous peoples recognize deep connections between their people, their waters and lands, and animal and plant life,,Climate change–related damage to land, water, and Because climate change poses a significant threat to indigenous peoples and communities (Donkor et al.), most rural farmers rely on IK, which is central to their cultural resilience, to devise adaptive responses to such change as it occurs (Fereja).Consequently, there is an urgent need for a policy-led integrated approach that Climate change and indigenous knowledge Indigenous peoples, particularly those in small island, high-altitude, desert and the Arctic, are already experiencing the impacts of climate change. on Climate Change Fifth Assessment Report process proceeds. Leaning into Indigenous knowledge on climate change.
