Indigenous peoples, among the first affected by these upheavals, hold essential traditional knowledge for thinking about resilience and sustainability. Their cosmovision, based on a millennial relationship with the living world, offers concrete and complementary answers to contemporary challenges, particularly in terms of: - biodiversity preservation - governance of the living world - social cohesion - cultural transmission - alternative and sustainable economic models. Through cross-perspectives from the academic, institutional and associative worlds, this panel discussion will offer a reflection on the contribution of indigenous knowledge to the major challenges of our time.
