- W4300628777 abstract "Sacred groves retain pristine or secondary forest tracts with rich biodiversity protected for centuries due to their sociocultural and religious values as well as indigenous belief systems. In the Global South, deities and related practices are often associated with sacred groves. The populace believe deities reside within them and perform their holy function of protection from within the confines of the groves like the Tenoboase sacred grove, Ghana. Moreover, these sacred groves have legends, folklore, taboos, rituals, feasts and festivals and myths, which are integral to maintaining them. Diverse cultures and traditions recognize sacred groves differently and have different rules for their protection and, in turn, the safety of the vast biodiversity they hold. Therefore, these groves serve as informal centres for in situ conservation of biodiversity. In some cases, rare, endangered or threatened plants and animals have been documented in sacred groves within the Global South. The sacredness, spiritual, religious beliefs and taboos contribute significantly to the preservation and management of biodiversity found within these sacred groves. However, globalization and shifts in sociocultural and traditional outlooks are driving a drop in the number, size, management regimes and composition of sacred groves in the Global South. This chapter seeks to highlight the roles of sacred groves in biodiversity conservation and how they can be effectively managed." @default.
