About Us
Welcome to Decoding TEK! We are a community of researchers, educators, and practitioners dedicated to preserving and sharing the ancient wisdom of indigenous cultures regarding the relationship between humans and the natural world.
Traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) is the accumulated body of knowledge, practices, and beliefs of indigenous and rural communities regarding the relationship between living beings and their environment. TEK is passed down through generations and reflects the deep understanding of the local environment and its dynamics.
Our goal is to bridge the gap between traditional ecological knowledge and contemporary science by providing a platform for sharing and exchange of information. We believe that by bringing together different perspectives, we can create a more holistic and sustainable approach to managing our natural resources.
Our website features a wide range of resources and services, including articles, videos, workshops, and educational materials that showcase the value of traditional ecological knowledge and its applications in modern society. We also collaborate with indigenous communities and organizations to ensure that the traditional knowledge is shared with respect and sensitivity to the cultural context.
We invite you to explore our website, learn more about traditional ecological knowledge, and join us in our mission to preserve and share this valuable resource for future generations. Thank you for visiting!
