Community knowledge
LokAyurveda
Community health knowledge, documented with consent and without a healer directory.
LokAyurveda, as Dr Chandan describes it, is community health knowledge carried by village vaidyas, folk healers, midwives, and other traditional providers. It belongs to a place, a plant, and the people who hold it.
