This network is a volunteer-run project and an online open space for international dialogue on Ecological Knowledge. Please join us and see what we can create here! The founders envision a ‘community of learning’ at the intersection of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), ecology, local culture, and western science.

The network could provide information (supplied by members), for discussion/consensus building. Chat rooms could be used for research or networking purposes. We could make links to organizations/societies doing relevant work, links to jobs in the field, links to funding sources...and more...but this can be built over time... It is a place for research project participants to interact on-line with other people (locally and globally) regarding Traditional Ecological Knowledge.
