What this power means.
Capability to develop or express intergenerational knowledge transfer in a declared context without inheriting broader claims.

How to observe or measure it without overclaiming
Rightsholders define whether and how to measure continuity, use, language/land relationship, wellbeing, authority, access/restriction, recipient readiness and reciprocal benefit.
