- W2605265318 abstract "Many countries of the world have attained giant economic strides utilizing their indigenous technologies as ignition keys and foundations from which further knowledge evolved. African countries, like Nigeria, have very robust indigenous technologies which have not been maximally exploited for economic growth both for the individuals and the nation. This is a study of Indigenous Technology (IT) mechanism operative in the Nigerian ethnic nationalities, aimed at investigating the effectiveness of these existing IT mechanisms in the eradication of absolute poverty in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria. It was a qualitative study involving interviews with 78 knowledge workers and 81 Indigenous Knowledge (IK) practitioners. A researcher instrument - Indigenous Technology for Eradication of Poverty Questionnaire - was used to collect data. Deductive Approach was used to analyze data. Findings showed that the IT mechanisms are ineffective in the eradication of poverty in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria. Findings also showed that sacredness and protection occasioned by tradition makes it difficult to manage IT on the Intellectual Property (IP) platform for entrepreneurial benefits. Based on these findings, it was recommended that IT must be identified by the appropriate government agencies, and a national policy put in place to protect and promote them so as to cushion the burden of loss experienced by the traditional custodians. This should include the use of the IP platform to maintain a balance between the protection and preservation of Indigenous technologies and the free exchange of knowledge." @default.
