The purpose of this site is to further stimulate the recognition, utilization and exchange of indigenous knowledge in the development process. The site aims to function as a platform for local communities, NGO's, development practitioners, policy makers, and academia interested in IK. Over the past few weeks 73 resources have been added to the page, which are now on-line: . For other IK information on the Internet see also the Nuffic/CIRAN IK Pages () We kindly invite you to contribute to the promotion of indigenous knowledge in the development and scientific enterprise, and to provide us with information on links to sites with case studies, tools, guidelines and manuals on the use of IK, Best Practices, programmes and projects, directories, databases, conferences, and mailing lists. We hope also that you would make visiting the two websites part of your routine activities. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Anna van Marrewijk Editor, Indigenous Knowledge and Development Monitor Nuffic-CIRAN P.O.
