Our purpose in carrying out this project has been to support the development of actions that can remove
barriers to traditional foods in urban environments for Indigenous people. Traditional foods are hunted,
trapped, fished, gathered and cultivated to various extents depending on the community and their respective
traditional territories. Communities and organizations across the country are finding innovative ways to bring
traditional foods to urban residing Indigenous people, but they are often navigating the relevant policies and
regulations on their own. This situation places the burden of navigating current policies and regulations on
Indigenous communities

The major objective of this research project, conducted between October 2002 and June 2005, was to collect baseline information on northern peoples' perceptions and experiences of HIV/AIDS, as well as to identify local and regional capacities and gaps for preventing and managing HIV/AIDS. Because hepatitis C comes to communities in many of the same ways as HIV and AIDS, it was also included in the research.

Mar 18, 2013
The role of culture in population health is increasingly coming under intense scrutiny at the conceptual and applied levels. This program of research is investigating the role of culture as a determinant of health with Aboriginal community research partners through the concept of “cultural vitalization.” This approach seeks to examine culture in population health as a multiple and dynamic set of phenomena, rather than historical and static.
