At a Conference in Nepal, Indigenous-Led Research and Education Will Take Center Stage

"Indigenous Peoples have been living with their surrounding landscape, natural resources and biodiversity, and continue practicing traditional livelihoods, knowledge, skills, cultural values, food and economy for generations. However, Indigenous Peoples have been struggling with climate and external threats to the continuation of Indigenous foods and economy."

"By presenting Indigenous-led research through methodologies including stories and case studies, the assembly will highlight their lived experiences and community programs."

"A major theme of this event will be traditional foods and economies. Presenters will discuss the impacts of climate change, modern education, development programs and conservation activities through a lens of food sovereignty."
