Indigenous knowledge is the dynamic information base of a society, facilitating communication
and decision-making. It is the cornerstone of many modern-day innovations in science and
technology. It is also a ready and valuable resource for sustainable and resilient livelihoods,
and attracts increasing public interest due to its applications in bio-technology, health, bio-
prospecting, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, food preparation, mathematics and astronomy.
INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE OF NAMIBIA is a fascinating compendium aimed at a wide
readership of academics and students, government officials, policy makers, and development
partners. The 17 chapters examine the indigenous knowledge of medicinal plants for treating
HIV/AIDS, malaria, cancer, and other microbial infections of humans and livestock; indigenous
foods; coping and response strategies in dealing with human-wildlife conflicts, floods, gender,
climate change and the management of natural resources. A new rationalisation of adolescent
customary and initiation ceremonies is recommended in response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic;
and a case study of the San people of Namibia speaks to the challenges of harmonising
modern education with that of indigenous people. |
