描述（由申请人提供）：健康研究会议：对东北部的土著和第一民族的重点这次会议补助金申请（R13/U13）要求资助，以支持大规模的土著健康研究会议，重点是美国土著和东北部的第一民族人民。东北地区包括美国和加拿大。在美国，东北地区代表诸如纽约、宾夕法尼亚、佛蒙特、缅因州和新罕布什尔州等州。它也代表加拿大的省份，如安大略和魁北克。预计将产生相当大的区域，国家和国际关注，这次会议将提供一个学术，专业和社区为基础的卫生从业人员，研究人员和倡导者的实质性论坛，以推进和传播尖端创新。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和教育美洲原住民和第一民族健康和健康差异研究的最新进展以及现有资源，以确保道德，安全的研究活动。土著健康研究会议重点关注美国东北部土著人的主要理由是，会议地点将直接位于Haudenosaunee人的传统领土内。自远古以来，豪德诺索尼人与这些祖先领土的关系一直保持着连续性，尽管加拿大和美国民族国家不断进行殖民入侵、侵蚀和地缘政治强加，豪德诺索尼人仍然是纽约中部和西部地区人口最多的土著民族之一，并且在与纽约州接壤的保留地社区、北部的安大略和东北部的魁北克也有很好的代表性。预计本次会议将吸引许多原住民和非原住民特定社区，如美国和加拿大东北地区的学术研究人员，学生，医疗保健从业人员和社区领袖。健康研究会议：这次会议讨论的问题是公共卫生，因为它涉及到基本人权。人权中心认为，土著人民享有能达到的最高标准健康的权利是受法律保护的一项基本人权。这次会议将汇集土著治疗师谁是共同努力，以确保高质量的护理，而不是继续在一个古老的，功能失调的系统低于标准的医疗保健的道路。

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.
