自然资源的可持续管理在减轻贫困和总体社会经济发展中发挥着关键作用。东北(NE)印度是生物多样性热点地区,也是大约150个不同道德的民族部落的家园,文化和传统信仰,将该地区视为拥有丰富自然资源和传统生态知识(TEK)的文化天堂。相反,TEK的严格约束性质,在这篇综述中,将TEK实践和可持续自然资源管理(NRM)并列。考虑TEK的更广泛观点和随后的实践,我们已经确定了十二个可持续发展目标(SDG),这些目标与TEK和NE地区的实践直接相关。本次审查精心详述了TEK和实践,有助于以更全面和生态友好的方式实现不同可持续发展目标的各种可持续发展目标。Houde\的表现,以区分TEK的每个元素和实践存在于该国的NE地区,例如传统的农业和灌溉系统,神圣的树林,不同部落的文化信仰体系,已经对该地区八个州中的每个州进行了系统分析和记录。与NRM相关的现代实践的收益与TEK相关,或适应性经验知识体系。土著农业系统,流域管理,生物多样性保护,印度东北部的种族医学治疗系统构成了审查的重要组成部分。然而,快速城市化,工业化,森林砍伐迫切需要系统地整理,文档,分析,并保护印度东北部土著社区的TEK。
Sustainable management of natural resources plays a critical role in poverty alleviation and overall socio-economic development. North East (NE) India is blessed as a biodiversity hotspot, being also home to around 150 ethnic tribes with diverse ethical, cultural and traditional beliefs, endorsing the region as a cultural paradise rich in natural resources and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK). Conversely, the severely constrained nature of TEK, has juxtaposed TEK practices and sustainable natural resources management (NRM) in this
review. Deliberating on the broader perspectives of TEK and ensuing practices, we have identified twelve sustainable development goals (SDGs) which are directly correlated to the TEK and practices of NE region. This
review has meticulously detailed TEK and practices that can help in achieving various sustainable development targets of different SDGs in a more comprehensive and eco-friendly manner. Houde\'s manifestation to differentiate each element of TEK and practices present in the NE region of the country, such as traditional farming and irrigation systems, sacred groves, and cultural belief systems of different tribes, have been systematically analyzed and documented for each of the eight states of this region. The benefits accrued modern practices related to NRM are correlated with TEK, or adaptive empirical knowledge system. Indigenous agricultural systems, watershed management, biodiversity conservation, and ethnomedicinal therapeutic systems in NE India formed a vital part of the
review. However, rapid urbanization, industrialization, and deforestation warrant an urgent need to systematically collate, document, analyze, and conserve the TEK of the indigenous communities of NE India.
