With diabetes and heart disease being a leading cause of death among American Indian and Alaskan Native people, there is a growing movement to reclaim and restore our wellness and cultural awareness. Native-led projects from Communities Creating Healthy Environments will share their inter-generational approaches to food sovereignty with models that reflect traditional living in contemporary society.
Presenters: Representatives from the CCHE Indian Country Team: Rocky Boy Healthy Board, Council of Athabascan Tribal Governments, Mvskoke Food Sovereignty Initiative, Indigenous Environmental Network
Moderators: Shash Yázhí, NM; Lori New Breast, Consultant, of Mahnokini & Associates, East Glacier Park, MT
Webinars will be held every on Tuesdays, from 3pm-5pm EST from April through May 2012. Registration is now closed.
