TITLE: A PORTRAIT OF INDIAN TRADITIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND IPR
ABSTRACT:Indigenous groups’ evaluations are used to build traditional understanding, which is developed over time. Conventional knowledge (TK) is vulnerable to misuse due to a weak element that is mostly transmitted verbally from one age to the next. The amount of traditional knowledge that exists can be very large and includes knowledge about a wide range of industries, such as information about plants, animals, and their characteristics, about reserves and soils, about combinations of natural and inorganic substances, about medicinal knowledge, and about folklore terminology in relation to music, dance, stories, and art work. All of those lofty ideas, “within the area of technological, technology, ecology, medication, agriculture, biodiversity; artwork and literature also come under the scope of traditional information,” have been connected and have gradually grown more attractive over generations of a network. TK is used to preserve the society, its customs, and the genetic reserves necessary for the network’s long-term survival. As such, it is imperative that the state-of-the-art IPR device incorporate a sui generis element.
