The Bioregional Traditional Knowledge Database Wellbeing Farm will serve as a repository for vital traditional knowledge encompassing arts, crafts, livelihoods, and connections to our natural heritage, all in danger of disappearance. This database will form an extraordinary source of knowledge and cultural diversity from which the appropriate innovation solutions can be derived today and in the future. The Farm’s bioregional database will emulate and interface with the ...UNESCO International Traditional Knowledge Institute (ITKI) an ambitious project intended to preserve, restore, and promote the re-use of traditional skills and inventions from all over the world. ITKI includes among its important resources an online encyclopedia of low-tech know-how. The physical and electronic database at Wellbeing Farm will include a collection of books, blueprints, photos, and drawings showing how things were made and how we fed ourselves in a pre-carbon world including resources such as the Whole Earth Catalog, books published by Shelter Publications, the Foxfire books, mechanical engineering texts, trade encyclopedias, and downloaded and printed reproductions like Small Hydropower Systems, home built windpower, and books and resources for pre-petroleum technology. https://www.lowtechmagazine.com//unesco-sets-up-internatio
