Indigenous Sustainable Wisdom by Darcia Narvaez

Indigenous Sustainable Wisdom: First Nation Know-how for Global Flourishing is an edited collection that explores the practical traditional wisdom that stems from Nature-based relational cultures that were or are guided by this worldview.

“Authentic and deep respect for Indigenous knowledge(s) means keeping it alive and vital, appreciating its urgent necessity for today’s times, and interweaving it into the lives of non-Indigenous peopleNo longer can Indigenous knowledge be marginalized, relegated to the past, or shelved in a museum. As becomes clearer each day, our planet cannot survive without its inhabitants learning to live in harmony with Mother Earth, as Indigenous wisdom teaches. The diverse chapters in this book offer ways to make this vision a reality for right now and lasting into the future.” —Susan Roberta Katz, Professor, International and Multicultural Education, University of San Francisco
