Reclaiming Indigenous Food Relationships: Improving Health with Culture

Wednesday, June 26

Prevention strategies rooted in customs and cultural traditions are proving to be promising practices for elevating the health of American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) people.

In this webinar, learn how to use the American Indian Cancer Foundation's (AICAF) latest resource, Reclaiming Indigenous Food Relationships: Improving Health with Culture (PDF, 5.5 MB, 12 pgs.). This framework recognizes cultural foodways as central to life. It is a valuable tool for integrating culture into efforts to restore health for AI/AN people.

Participants will:

learn about the AICAF and its history
understand how to use the Reclaiming Indigenous Food Relationships framework to implement comprehensive healthy eating initiatives by applying a Culture is Prevention model
hear innovative success stories of how the framework has advanced healthy Native foods initiatives
learn about potential partnership areas
