International Centre for Traditional Knowledge against desertification 
and for a sustainable future in the Euro-Mediterranean

 Traditional Knowledge constitutes the ancient knowledge of humanity, 
the deepest layer on which our science and culture have developed, the 
local solutions that have allowed the creation and management of 
ecosystems and cultural landscapes on the entire surface of the planet. 
It enables the development of solutions with a low energy and resource 
use, that are able to adapt to environmental variability and to react to 
emergencies and catastrophes in flexible and multifunctional ways. 
Today, while entire planet systems risk ecological collapse, Traditional 
Knowledge shows how to interact with the environment enhancing its 
resource potential without exhausting it.
