Indigenous Health Conference

Sheraton on the Falls Hotel, Niagara Falls/Canada

May 21-23, 2020

Building Our Future is the focus for the 4th biennial Indigenous Health
Conference. Topics include youth leadership, life promotion, suicide
prevention, murdered and missing Indigenous women, determinants of health
and Indigenous ways of knowing. Through this conference we hope to
facilitate cultural humility among health care providers working with and
for Indigenous Peoples and to nurture the future leaders in Indigenous
healthcare.



We are pleased to welcome your abstract submissions to this
interdisciplinary conference where we will bring together Indigenous
Peoples, health care providers, researchers and experts in the field who are
working to address the huge health disparities between Indigenous and
non-Indigenous Peoples by examining the evidence and creating dialogue to
improve the understanding of healthcare needs.

*	Health Care Systems
*	Traditional Ways and Self-Determination
