Abstract

This paper aims to assert that when the development of globalization is premised on adequate legal instruments and new technologies, it is quite possible to protect traditional knowledge and guarantee its reasonable and appropriate utilization. The process has enhanced the propagation of data in the global culture and hence has dangers like biopiracy and cultural imperialism. But it also comes with some benefits for enhancing the safeguard of Indigenous knowledge within the context of cooperation in the international arena legal norms and standards and innovative technological inventions like the blockchain and artificial intelligence. They can help in the way keeping cultural information and defending Indigenous people’s rights from being infringed upon and satisfied that they do not need any recompense. This paper provides an analysis of how current international and national laws have failed to adequately protect traditional knowledge, which is communal and intergenerational, and suggests the need for more harmonized approaches. Finally, this paper calls for shaping the globalization process as a process of saving and implementing cultural and traditional knowledge into Globalisation as the occurrence which supports diversity and equal opportunities.
