Assessing long-term changes in Indigenous Environmental Knowledge

Using systematic ethnobiological place-based data collection in a unique research site in the Bolivian Amazon with an untapped wealth of long-term ethnobiological information, the IEK-CHANGES project will rigorously assess the processes through which Indigenous Environmental Knowledge (IEK) systems change over time, and the ecological impacts associated with such changes.

The IEK-CHANGES project is an ERC Starting Grant funded by the European Union (IEK-CHANGES, 101117423) to Dr. Álvaro Fernández-Llamazares.
