Health Research Conference: A focus on Native and First Nations of the Northeast

描述(申请人提供)：卫生研究会议：关注东北原住民和原住民这项会议拨款申请(R13/U13)要求提供资金，以支持一次以美国原住民和东北原住民为重点的大型土著卫生研究会议。东北部地区包括美国和加拿大。在美国，东北部地区代表纽约州、宾夕法尼亚州、佛蒙特州、缅因州和新罕布夏州。它也代表加拿大的省份，如安大略省和魁北克省。预计这次会议将引起地区、国家和国际的相当大的关注，它将为学术、专业和社区卫生从业人员、研究人员和倡导者提供一个实质性的论坛，以促进和传播尖端创新。会议的主要目标是确保公众、医疗保健专业人员和研究社区了解美洲原住民和第一民族健康和健康差距研究的最新进展和现有资源，以确保符合道德的、安全的研究活动。土著健康研究会议关注东北美洲土著的主要理由是尊重承认会议地点将直接位于Haudenosaunee人的传统领土内。自远古以来，Haudenosaunee人与这些祖传领地的关系一直保持着连续性，尽管加拿大和美国的民族国家不断进行殖民入侵、侵占和地缘政治强加，Haudenosaunee人仍然是纽约中西部地区人口最多的土著民族之一，在北部的安大略省与纽约州接壤的保留地社区和魁北克东北部的保留地社区也有很好的代表性。预计本次会议将吸引美国和加拿大东北地区的学术研究人员、学生、医疗从业者和社区领袖等许多原住民和非原住民特定社区。卫生研究会议：关注东北原住民和原住民这次会议讨论的问题是公共卫生，因为它涉及基本人权。根据人权中心的说法，土著人民享有可达到的最高标准健康的权利是一项受法律保护的基本人权。这次会议将把土著治疗师聚集在一起，他们正在共同努力，以确保高质量的医疗保健，而不是在一个陈旧的、功能失调的系统中继续走低于标准的医疗保健之路。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Health Research Conference: A focus on Native and First Nations of the Northeast This conference grant application (R13/U13) requests funding in support of a large scale Indigenous Health Research conference focusing on Native American and First Nations peoples of the Northeast. The Northeastern region includes both the United States and Canada. In the U.S., the Northeast region represents states such as New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Maine, and New Hampshire. It also represents provinces in Canada, such as Ontario and Quebec. Expected to generate considerable regional, national and international attention, this conference will provide a substantive forum of scholarly, professional and community-based health practitioners, researchers and advocates to advance and disseminate cutting edge innovations. The main goal of the conference is to ensure that public, healthcare professionals and research communities are informed and educated on the recent advances in Native American and First Nation health and health disparities research and existing resources to ensure ethical, safe research activities. Primary rationale for the Indigenous Health Research conference's Northeastern Native American focus corresponds with respectful recognition that the conference sites will be located directly within the traditional territories of the Haudenosaunee people. Having maintained continuity in their relationships to these ancestral territories since time immemorial and despite ongoing colonial intrusion, encroachment and the geo-political impositions of the Canadian and U.S nation-states, the Haudenosaunee remain among the most populous Indigenous nations of the Central and Western New York regions, and are also well represented in reservation communities bordering New York state to the north in Ontario and to the northeast in Quebec. It is expected that this conference will attract many Native and non-Native specific communities, such as academic researchers, students, health care practitioners, and community leaders all around the Northeast region of the United States and Canada. Health Research Conference: A focus on Native and First Nations of the Northeast The problem being addressed by this conference is public health as it relates to basic human rights. According to the Human Rights Centre, indigenous peoples right to the highest attainable standard of health are a fundamental human right protected by law. This conference would bring together Indigenous healers who are working together to ensure high quality care rather than continue the path of sub- standard health care within an archaic, dysfunctional system.
