This section delves further into the concept of biocultural diversity and the key sustaining role that water plays with examples from across the globe of the way human communities interact with water and of how these complex interactions maintain life in diverse environments. Collectively these contributions emphasise the role that local/traditional/Indigenous peoples and knowledges have in the sustainable management of water and they describe some of the challenges that such peoples face in having their knowledge recognised and acted upon by others.
