Josh Trinadad from the Institute of Indigenous Knowledge Timor Leste is a PhD student at the University of Melbourne. According to Josh, every indigenous person has a strong relationship with nature because nature is the giver of life. And the more they are inland, such as Australia, which is a continent, the stronger their ties to their native areas. And the indigenous people of Australia are considered as the indigenous people with the oldest culture in the world.
A good understanding of indigenous knowledge enables the preservation of their culture and also the making of appropriate policies by the government.
