Abstract
Traditional Knowledge systems are the
essence of the social capital of the poor and the source of
their survival strategies. Rooted in tradition, TK is also
contemporary knowledge, defined by its inherently dynamic
nature. It is constantly evolving as individual and
community responses to the challenges posed by their environment.
