Trends and prospects for local knowledge in ecological and conservation research and monitoring (2008, background): “…local knowledge There is an increasing number of ecologists and conservation biologists actively employing LEK and working collaboratively with communities, which helps accumulate a critical mass of evidence for and support of the value of local knowledge (Kimmerer 2002; Berkes 2004; Brook 2007).”
On the role of traditional ecological knowledge as a collaborative concept: a philosophical study (2013, background): “In indigenous science, nature is subject, not object. . . Embraced as an equal partner to the power of Western science, TEK offers not only important biological insights but a cultural framework for environmental problem solving that incorporates human values (Kimmerer 2002, 433–434).”
Ethnozoology: A Brief Introduction (2015, unknown): “…relationships between ecosystem components ( The study of local or traditional zoological knowledge offers not only the possibility of new insights into biological phenomena, but also the opportunity to cross-check scientific hypotheses (Alves and Nishida 2002; Kimmerer 2002; Nishida et al. 2006b).”
