| Headline: | Indigenous knowledge |
| Description: | Indigenous peoples all over the world are using technology to record and protect their traditional knowledge and culture. They are documenting and preserving agricultural methods that have been passed down through centuries. And it is not only small communities who rely on these traditional means. It is estimated that two thirds of the world’s population depend on food produced by traditional farming methods. ICT Update (http://ictupdate.cta.int) is a bimonthly printed bulletin, web magazine, and accompanying email newsletter focusing on the use of information and communication technologies in agriculture in African, Caribbean and Pacific countries. It is published in English and French, by CTA (Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation) in Wageningen in the Netherlands. |
