Indigenous Peoples and Environmental Change
Adaptive capacity refers to the ability of individuals, communities, and systems to adjust, change, and respond effectively to environmental, social, and economic challenges. It encompasses the skills, knowledge, resources, and flexibility necessary to cope with changes and uncertainties, particularly in the face of environmental shifts. This concept is critical for understanding how intergenerational knowledge transfer plays a role in resilience and sustainability within Indigenous communities.
