Project name change


The Higher Education Recognition for Traditional Knowledge (HERTK) project is now renamed the Traditional Knowledge Recognition for Traditional Knowledge Holders (HERTKH) programme. This acknowledged the important fact that knowledge cannot be separated from the people who have inherited, fostered, gathered, created and guarded it, and that, much like their relationship to country, a people's relationship to their Traditional Knowledge is a foundation of their identity.
