Conocimiento tradicional y su impacto en la generación de prácticas sostenibles: un estudio exploratorio en los apicultores.
Resumen
Este trabajo explora cómo los conocimientos tradicionales inciden en la adopción de prácticas sostenibles, con el propósito de destacar su valor como elemento clave en la construcción de alternativas sostenibles. A pesar de su importancia, estos saberes están en riesgo de desaparecer por la falta de políticas e instrumentos que permitan su registro, conservación y transmisión. El enfoque exploratorio-causal del estudio permite evidenciar su impacto en la actividad apícola, donde se ha identificado una relación significativa entre el conocimiento tradicional y la sostenibilidad; no obstante, existe una carencia de investigaciones que respalden esta relación desde un enfoque cuantitativo. Los resultados sientan bases para futuras investigaciones y propuestas de políticas que reconozcan y protejan estos saberes como patrimonio intelectual.
