Transform Indigenous Governance to Improve Health
Healing and transforming Indigenous health governance systems requires a journey of reclamation and resilience. It is a process by which we construct our collective futures from within our traditional values, norms, and lived experiences, rather than looking to external definitions of sovereignty. During this webinar, we will introduce a new resource that guides tribes through the transformative process of strengthening self-governance through greater public health authority. The resource draws upon Indigenous models of nation building and healing to promote cultural and political sovereignty, and build legal competency. Register for the webinar and be among the first to receive the resource.
About Our Practice
The Seven Sacred Directions
Seven Directions was born from a desire to create greater connectivity across the many tribes, communities and organizations that have the health and wellness of American Indian and Alaska Native people at the heart of what they do. We are guided by the “seven directions” of practice: Integration & Holistic Wellness, Culture & Identity, Families & Communities, Respect for Sovereignty, Service, Indigenous Knowledge, and Tribal Governance.
The Seven Sacred Directions serve as an indigenous framework for presenting the strategic directions for the public health agenda.
