Tpically, IK is stored in peoples' memories and passed down orally from generation to generation. However, with issues such as rapid urbanisation, commercialisation, marginalisation, westernisation and changes in technology, traditional IK systems are in decline. IK holds significant value, both in terms of cultural heritage and identity, and in terms of its potential economic and environmental benefits. As such, there is a strong drive to capture and preserve IK worldwide.enIndigenous knowledgeIndigenous knowledge management systemsSoftware architectureIndigenous knowledge technologyIKTC 2011Conference PresentationFogwill, T., Viviers, I., Engelbrecht, L., Krause, C., & Alberts, R.
