Abstract

The centuries-old methods of Indigenous cultures can help us manage resources sustainably and live in harmony with the environment. This study aims to identify publication trends on Indigenous knowledge and sustainable resource management. The current bibliometric review employed Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) datasets and analysed using ScientoPy and VOSviewer to discover the publications’ trends. The results of this review identified that the evolution of publications fluctuated and that the initiative to increase the research on this topic is crucial. Based on keywords analysis, this study found that “Ethnobotany” and “Climate Change” are used differently, highlighting the growing importance of Indigenous viewpoints in tackling modern environmental concerns and reflecting the dynamic nature of research goals. The international network collaboration indicated that a four-country collaboration exist where Indonesia had a strong network with England and Finland. Future Indigenous knowledge and sustainable resource management research should examine contextual factors that affect publication patterns to build on these findings. The causes of the highest publishing years and database discrepancies may be examined. A detailed analysis of research activity changes can help explain this field’s research trend.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
