Southern Chiefs'? Organization (SCO)的动态

SEVEN PATHS TO BETTER HEALTH ON WORLD DIABETES DAY Today as we mark World Diabetes Day, the Southern Chiefs’ Organization is unveiling a new campaign to promote healthy living and encourage good health and well-being. The campaign is being launched on World Diabetes Day, as the disease continues to take a disproportionate toll on First Nation people of all ages. Statistics show First Nation children are 25 times more likely to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes than all other children in Manitoba. The numbers also show more than 80% of children living with type 2 diabetes in Manitoba are First Nation children. The multi-media campaign led by SCO’s Health Transformation team is based on traditional Anishinaabe and Dakota teachings. It includes healthy living tips and words of encouragement for all stages of life and is focused on the following seven themes: Food is Medicine, Water is Medicine, Movement is Medicine, Community is Medicine, Land is Medicine, Culture is Medicine and Knowledge is Medicine. You can find the tips on staying healthy and strong in mind, body, and spirit at: https://lnkd.in/gfJpiFse Read our full statement on our website at: https://lnkd.in/gTeiFv7e #SCOINCMB #WorldDiabetesDay #wellness #food #knowledge #community #land #culture #mind #body #tips #medicine #campaign #health #traditions #SCOHealthTransformation #Anishinaabe #Dakota #FirstNations

It would be great to see more traditional country foods, especially wild game, available for indigenous people to choose from that would be better aligned with nutritional, spiritual and cultural needs.
