Book excerpt: Until the 1950s the Inuit were considered geographically isolated. Effectively, before the Second World War, the majority of the Inuit in Alaska, Canada, and Greenland lived mainly according to a traditional lifestyle, which was based on subsistence activities such as hunting and fishing (Duhaime, 1989 & 1991; Pars et al., 2001; Proulx, 1994). These activities involved vigorous physical activity and high dietary intake of marine mammals and fish. Studies conducted during the 1960s and 1970s suggested that the Inuit appeared to have been spared from the diabetes epidemic experienced by many North American Indian groups (Bjerregaard & Young, 1998; Mouratoff & Scott, 1967; Mouratoff & Scott, 1973; Sagild et al., 1966; Scott & Griffith, 1957). Because of the rapid social transition subsequent to the improvement of communication and transportation with southern regions, and with the settlement of Inuit populations into permanent communities, a shift away from traditional lifestyles and diet was observed in these populations (Bjerregaard & Curtis, 2002; Blanchet et al., 2002; Hodgins, 1997; Kuhnlein & Receveur, 1996; Labbé, 1987; Nobmann et al., 1992; Pars et al., 2001). This abandonment of traditional lifestyles and diet has been associated with an increased prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure and elevated blood lipids (Adler et al., 1994; Bjerregaard & Young, 1998; Mouratoff & Scott, 1967; Mouratoff & Scott, 1973; Murphy et al., 1995; Sagild et al., 1966; Scott & Griffith, 1957).

Book excerpt: The main objective of this report is to outline the demographic and social characteristics of the Inuit population who participated in the 2004 Nunavik Inuit Health Survey. Socio-demographic factors are of major significance in determining a population's health. These factors may be interpreted as risk or protective factors in relation to various diseases and should be taken into consideration in planning health services. This theme paper begins by presenting a description of the survey sample and goes on to consider the Inuit's mode of living, including factors such as household composition, adoption and marital status. It then addresses topics related to economic status: education, individual income, occupation and job status. In addition, the subject of personal perceptions of one's own health status is also included in the last section of the paper.

Book excerpt: The object of this theme paper is to describe the state of health of the Nunavik Inuit women and the sexual health profile of men and women as reported during the 2004 Nunavik Inuit Health Survey. Therefore, the discussion will first focus on the preventive attitude among women such as screening techniques of cervical and breast cancer and also focuses on women's behaviour during pregnancy and their bone health status. The second part of the paper concentrates on preventive sexual behaviours among men and women such as the number of sexual partners in the preceding year and the use of contraceptives.

Book excerpt: In the 1992 health survey among the Inuit of Nunavik, hearing impairment was the most commonly reported health problem (Santé Québec, 1994). The first section of this paper presents the 2004 Nunavik Inuit Health Survey's findings on the prevalence of hearing loss and the variables associated with it. In 1984, the Hearing and Otitis program began to develop audiology services in Nunavik. Since 1994, there have been two audiologists, hearing aid specialist and otolaryngologist visits, as well as numerous Inuit hearing health care providers, providing clinical and rehabilitation services and working on prevention and research projects. Whereas students and more recently preschoolers have been targeted in screening programs, this survey in 2004 was the first time that the general adult population could be systematically approached. The findings of the survey have already led to a new focus clinically on older members of the communities as well as increased efforts in hearing loss prevention for men via promotion of ear protection. The second section of the paper briefly describes the Nunavik Inuit's dental health, which is generally an indicator of the overall health and quality of life of the population under study.

Book excerpt: Au cours des dernières décennies, les communautés inuites du Nunavik ont connu de profonds changements dans tous les domaines de leur existence. Le contact sans cesse grandissant avec les populations des régions plus au sud a amené les Inuits à changer leurs habitudes de vie en adoptant, entre autres, un mode de vie plus sédentaire, des conditions de vie modernes et de nouvelles habitudes alimentaires. L'enquête menée par Santé Québec en 1992 révélait que ces changements avaient aussi leurs effets sur l'état de santé de cette population. Dix ans plus tard, la Régie régionale de la santé et des services sociaux du Nunavik (RRSSSN) jugea nécessaire d'organiser une nouvelle enquête sur son territoire en vue de suivre l?évolution de l'état de santé et de bien-être de sa population. Dix-sept fascicules thématiques, un rapport sur la nutrition ainsi qu'un rapport méthodologique ont été produits dans le cadre de l'enquête grâce à la collaboration de différents professionnels du réseau de la santé et du milieu universitaire. Les informations recueillies permettent de dresser, à un moment précis, l'état de santé et de bien-être des Inuits du Nunavik, en plus de fournir des données sur divers déterminants de la santé. Ce document présente les principaux résultats de l'Enquête de santé auprès des Inuits du Nunavik menée en 2004 par l'Institut national de santé publique du Québec (INSPQ) à bord de l'Amundsen, navire de la Garde côtière canadienne.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polluted air and contaminated food and water are major causes of human health deterioration, but public health policy has long struggled to effectively address these concerns. This timely book--written for a wide audience of policy makers, researchers, and general readers--synthesizes what we already know about environmental hazards, identifies the gaps in our knowledge, and provides a roadmap for reducing human exposure to environmental pollution. With contributions from leading experts, Environmental Determinants of Human Health examines numerous pollutants, both inorganic and organic, in the context of their human health impacts. Individual chapters explore exposure pathways, macroeconomic impacts of human health deterioration, technological and non-technological methods for reducing exposures, monetary and non-monetary benefits from exposure reduction, and risk communication and awareness, including citizen participation approaches. This volume is a crucial text for policy makers requiring scientific justification for the development of new environmental regulations, scientists researching public health and environmental contamination, and members of the public interested in human health issues.

Book excerpt: Why grassroots data activists in Latin America count feminicide—and how this vital social justice work challenges mainstream data science. What isn’t counted doesn’t count. And mainstream institutions systematically fail to account for feminicide, the gender-related killing of women and girls, including cisgender and transgender women. Against this failure, Counting Feminicide brings to the fore the work of data activists across the Americas who are documenting such murders—and challenging the reigning logic of data science by centering care, memory, and justice in their work. Drawing on Data Against Feminicide, a large-scale collaborative research project, Catherine D’Ignazio describes the creative, intellectual, and emotional labor of feminicide data activists who are at the forefront of a data ethics that rigorously and consistently takes power and people into account. Individuals, researchers, and journalists—these data activists scour news sources to assemble spreadsheets and databases of women killed by gender-related violence, then circulate those data in a variety of creative and political forms. Their work reveals the potential of restorative/transformative data science—the use of systematic information to, first, heal communities from the violence and trauma produced by structural inequality and, second, envision and work toward the world in which such violence has been eliminated. Specifically, D’Ignazio explores the possibilities and limitations of counting and quantification—reducing complex social phenomena to convenient, sortable, aggregable forms—when the goal is nothing short of the elimination of gender-related violence. Counting Feminicide showcases the incredible power of data feminism in practice, in which each murdered woman or girl counts, and, in being counted, joins a collective demand for the restoration of rights and a transformation of the gendered order of the world.

Download or read book Indigenous Child and Youth Care written by Cherylanne James and published by Canadian Scholars. This book was released on 2023-08-10 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At its core, Indigenous Child and Youth Care: Weaving Two Heart Stories Together is about unity. It seeks to create a heart-to-heart practice by bridging Indigenous ways of knowing with Western Child and Youth Care practices, encouraging students to approach their work with a more open understanding of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit worldviews. Author Cherylanne James guides students through self-location by dismantling their pre-existing biases regarding Indigenous Peoples, understanding personal privilege and power, educating themselves on Canadian and Indigenous history and contexts, and learning about the pervasive impacts of colonialism. Students will cultivate a practice that encourages ethical spaces of engagement while steering away from surface-level or disingenuous interactions. The text applies concepts and theories such as relational accountability, interconnectivity, resurgence, community-centred approaches, wise practices, relationship-building, anti-oppression, anti-racist, and social justice frameworks to enrich CYC practices and prepare students to engage with Indigenous children, youth, and families in an informed, meaningful way. Indigenous Child and Youth Care is designed as a journey, wherein the student reflects while they learn and grow as a CYC professional. It includes a variety of pedagogical features that catalyze thoughtful interaction with the material, such as a glossary, discussion questions, reflective practice question boxes, and additional resources for further learning. This is a powerful and vital text for college and university students in Child and Youth Care and Human Services. FEATURES - Unites Indigenous worldviews, histories and knowledge systems with western Child and Youth Care practices - Exposes students to pre-existing colonial and racist power structures while introducing them to Indigenous concepts and theories for inclusive practice - Contains a broad variety of pedagogical features, including a glossary, reflective practice questions, discussion questions, activities, and additional resources
