This course offers an introduction in the field of ethnobotany, the study that looks at the relationship between people, plants and culture. Ethnobotany researches such fascinating topics as, how do human cultures relate to plants for food, medicine, clothes, buildings and meaning making? You could describe it as anthropology with plants - it has a lot of overlap with both anthropology and botany or biology. The course is loosely based on the MSc Ethnobotany at the University of Kent, England.Documenting and reviving traditional knowledge in collaboration with indigenous peoples is essential for the earth and humanity. We are losing precious biodiversity and cultural diversity at a fast rate, and both need our protection. In addition, traditional knowledge can offer us solutions for biodiversity conservation, ecosystem restoration, sustainable food production, new medicines and much more. In this introductory course you will learn how plants fulfil human needs, the academic study of ethnobotany, research methods and ethics, and about the case study of piripiri a special group of medicinal plants as used by the Shipibo Konibo in the Peruvian Amazon. You will get started on how to be an ally for indigenous people and local communities, and the safeguarding of their valuable knowledge.(Course image by Artem Beliaikin on Unsplash)
