SUMMARY:Mainstreaming indigenous and local knowledge systems into adaptation communication for the Hindu Kush Himalaya Region
DESCRIPTION:About the workshop\nIndigenous\, traditional\, and local knowledge (ITLK) systems are diverse forms of knowledge prevalent across the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region. ITLK systems are often integrated into livelihood strategies and coping strategies for climate change impacts.

As a result\, various investigations\, capacity building\, and new initiatives have been started\, including a new HUC thematic working group on ILK and LLA.
