Journal Title：Indian Journal Of Traditional Knowledge

Traditional knowledge" is employed to mean knowledge, innovations and practices of indigenous and local communities embodying traditional life-styles; the wisdom developed over many generations of holistic traditional scientific utilization of the lands, natural resources, and environment. It is generally passed down by word of mouth, from generation to generation and is, for the most part, undocumented. Traditional knowledge is valid and necessary, and awaits its currently relevant wider application for human benefit. National Institute of Science Communication and Information Resources, CSIR felt a need to document the recent developments and the information bygone in this area in the form of an interdisciplinary periodical.

The Indian Journal of Traditional Knowledge will carry original research papers, review articles, short communications, etc. concerned with the observation and experimental investigation of the biological activities of the materials from plants, animals and minerals, used in the traditional health-care systems such as Ayurveda, Siddha, Yoga, Unani, Naturopathy, Homoeopathy, Folk-remedies, etc. As validation of indigenous claims it will cover Ethno-biology, Ethno-medicine, Ethno-pharmacology, Ethno-pharmacognosy & Clinical Studies on efficacy .

“傳統知識”是指體現傳統生活方式的土著和當地社區的知識、創新和實踐；是經過幾代人對土地、自然資源和環境進行全面傳統科學利用而形成的智慧。它通常通過口口相傳，一代又一代地傳承下來，而且大部分都沒有記錄。傳統知識是有效和必要的，等待著它目前相關的更廣泛應用，造福人類。印度國家科學傳播和信息資源研究所 (CSIR) 認為有必要以跨學科期刊的形式記錄該領域的最新發展和過去的信息。

《印度傳統知識雜志》將刊登原創研究論文、評論文章、短文等，涉及對傳統醫療保健系統（如阿育吠陀、悉達、瑜伽、尤那尼、自然療法、順勢療法、民間療法等）中使用的植物、動物和礦物材料的生物活性的觀察和實驗研究。作為對土著主張的驗證，它將涵蓋民族生物學、民族醫學、民族藥理學、民族生藥學及臨床療效研究。
