Role of Environment in Livelihood and Cultural Sustainability - Emerging issues and challenges

In this volume, the issues of indigenous rights, environmental degradation and its impact on the livelihood and culture of the indigenous communities, their struggle for survival, in the context of globalization were examined in detail, with a special focus on the preservation of natural resources through indigenous knowledge, as well as on sustenance of indigenous cultural traditions. It has been noticed that, along with the increase of the impact of globalization, exploitation of natural resources across the world and the greed of a few, are more intensely affecting the environment. Simultaneously it is refuting the needs of many, predominantly the indigenous people. Their access and command over natural resources are often denied affecting life support systems.
