    Additional Information about the Sources of Information

    • Indigenous - native; local; originating or produced naturally in a particular region.


    • Indigenous knowledge - knowledge that is unique to a specific culture or society;
    most often it is not written down.

    • Indigenous communication - transmission of information through local channels


    or forms. It is a means by which culture is preserved, handed down, and adapted.

    • Indigenous media and information - original information created by a local group


    of people. This also refers to content about indigenous peoples that may be
    distributed through dominant forms of media or through forms of communication
    unique to their people group.

    • Popular media cannot reach some rural areas. While print, broadcast, and
    new media have a wide reach, there are still areas that these forms of media have
    not reached.
    • Indigenous media and information are highly credible because they are near
    the source and are seldom circulated for profit.
    • Indigenous media are channels for change, education, and development
    because of its direct access to local channels.
    • Ignoring indigenous media and information can result in development and
    education programs that are irrelevant and ineffective.
    • Forms of indigenous media and their local examples:
    1. Folk or traditional media
    2. Gatherings and social organizations
    3. Direct observation
    4. Records - may be written, carved, or oral
    5. Oral instruction
