Introduction Traditional knowledge comprises the knowledge, innovations and practices of indigenous and local communities around the world developed from experiences gained over centuries, and adapted to local culture and environments, which is transmitted orally from generation to generation. It tends to be collectively owned and takes the form of stories, songs, folk lore, proverbs, culture values, beliefs, rituals, community laws, local language and agricultural practices. Traditional knowledge is not so called because of its antiquity, it is a living body of knowledge that is developed, sustained and passed on from generation to generation within a community often forming part of its cultural loss or spiritual identity. Over the passed decade traditional knowledge and its contribution in innovation management has gained growing interest from the international community. More than eleven UN and numerous other world renowned agencies have been dealing with traditional knowledge and innovation management. The United Nations System and indigenous organizations through ECOSCO, has made a number of recommendations on traditional knowledge addressed to government and the UN system. In India, Government has set up the National innovation foundation to identify, recognize and support innovations evolved from traditional knowledge. The Society for Research and Initiative for Sustainable Technologies (SRIST) and Institutions and the Grassroots Innovation Augmentation Network (GIAN) collectively documented hundreds of contemporary innovations based on outstanding traditional knowledge. Hence the key focus area today in the field of IP creation & management is effective governance of traditional knowledge for contemporary innovations to foster a world class environment for innovators across the nation to grow and sustain indigenously and compete internationally. Objectives of the Conference To provide an opportunity to academicians, research scholars and industry delegates to share their research and thoughts on traditional knowledge and innovation management through MHRD IPR chair's podium. Highlight specific areas in the field of traditional knowledge management, which are still unexplored and can provide ample opportunities in IP creation and management leading to sustainable innovations.
