Abstract

This article examines the critical role of Indigenous Peoples in Southeast Asia in both nature conservation and cultural preservation. Employing a qualitative methodological approach, this study incorporates case studies from Indonesia, Malaysia, and Vietnam. Data collection was conducted through literature reviews of reputable sources and interviews with indigenous community members. The findings highlight the unique knowledge and traditions Indigenous Peoples uphold in sustaining cultural and environmental heritage. However, they encounter a range of challenges, including land disputes, the adverse effects of climate change, and systemic discrimination against unrecognised indigenous rights. This article seeks to articulate the key arguments and contributions of research in advocating for the legal protection and recognition of Indigenous Peoples’ rights, while also examining the role of mass media in fostering public awareness of their struggles. It is anticipated that the findings of this study will serve as a foundation for formulating policies that more effectively support the sustainability of both indigenous communities and their environment.

Abstract

The abundance of studies on local wisdom in Indonesia is evident from a Google Scholar search, which yields a wealth of resources. However, the concept of local wisdom and its distinction from related terms such as ‘local knowledge’ and ‘indigenous knowledge’ remains unclear. This article seeks to clarify the notion of ‘wisdom’ by: first, re-examining  the definitions and debates surrounding local wisdom, local knowledge, and indigenous knowledge; second, tracing the models of indigenous research conducted in Indonesia; third, formulating a critical and philosophical approach to interpreting wisdom as conceptualised in Indonesian academic studies; and fourth, critically reflecting on the discourse of local knowledge, highlighting its role not only as a concept but also as a practical social movement that amplifies local voices.
