Integrating Indigenous Knowledge and Scientific Innovation: Sociological Perspectives on Climate Adaptation in India

Manash Chatterjee · 2025 · International Journal of Social Science Research (IJSSR)

Summary. Indigenous communities in India possess centuries of ecological knowledge crucial for climate adaptation. This study examines how indigenous knowledge systems integrate with scientific innovation in agriculture, watershed management, and biodiversity conservation. The research identifies power imbalances and marginalization of indigenous voices in adaptation planning, advocating for inclusive frameworks that equally value traditional and scientific approaches to build more equitable climate policies.
