Ethnobiology is the scientific study of the way living things are treated or used by different human cultures. It studies the dynamic relationships between people, biota, and environments, from the distant past to the immediate present. This  course is designed by the UK Public College to explore local responses to deforestation, climate change, natural resource management, medical ethnobotany, the impacts of mobility and displacement and the interface between conservation and development. Participants will explore the world of ethnobiology through this course. This  course will provide participants with the full knowledge of Biocultural Diversity. The Level 6 Diploma In Ethnobiology is designed to provide students with the necessary foundation of scientific knowledge, understanding and skill to build a career as an ethnobiologist.

This level 6 course in ethnobiology will provide participants with the understanding of ethnobiological practices, research, and findings have had a significant impact and influence across several fields of biological field such as ecology, conservation biology, development studies, and political ecology. Participants will learn about the dynamic relationships between people, biota, and environments, from the distant past to the immediate present. This certificate will also introduce participants to the relationship between human societies and plants: how humans use plants – as food, technology, medicine, and in ritual contexts; how they view and understand them; and their symbolic and spiritual role in a culture.
