No full textSharing Intergenerational Food Stories on the Land and Online to Engage Mi‘kmaw Children in Indigenous Food Sovereignty
Get PDFIntroduction: Within Indigenous cultures, stories about food and health have been shared on the land because the land, air, water, and ice are where food naturally grows and exists. Yet, Indigenous children are increasingly using online technologies to gather knowledge and share stories with their communities. Objectives: Through analyzing a storytelling session led by a Mi‘kmaw Knowledge Keeper, this paper explores how land-based learning can come together with online technology to engage children in Indigenous food sovereignty. Methods: This study is situated within an intergenerational Mi‘kmaw foods project called the Land2Lab Project and is guided by Two-Eyed Seeing and decolonial theory. We used narrative inquiry to explore a Knowledge Keeper‘s storytelling session that was conducted with 14 Mi‘kmaw children. Results: Through this study we learned that we can prioritize Mi‘kmaw knowledge both on the land and online. Yet, spending time on the land intergenerationally learning about Mi‘kmaw foodways is imperative to maintaining Mi‘kmaw food knowledge and engaging children in Indigenous food sovereignty. Conclusion/Discussion: While online technology may seem paradoxical to land-based learning, some elements of intergenerational storytelling can happen online and on the land, and both can be used to support the protection of Mi‘kmaw knowledge systems, foodways, and health for future generations
The Importance of Iron Supplementation in Pregnant Women
Get PDFIron supplementation is an important treatment for pregnant people with iron deficiency anemia. For this reason, we designed and created an evidence-based infographic with accessible fonts, pictograms, and language. This tool serves as a framework for the potential of visual communication tools in the context of improving medication and treatment adherence. Various sources were utilized to derive information on a suggested iron intake regimen; however, we encourage individuals to consult with their primary care providers in order to establish the ideal regimen for them, adjusted to unique individual factors

Narratives of Tradition and Transcendence: A Nuanced Examination of the Magnolia Phenomenon
Get PDFTwo instantly recognizable structures grace the skyline of Waco, Texas. Rounded, looming, and rusted, the Silos form a geographical indicator of the presence of Chip and Joanna Gaines‘ home-centric empire — Magnolia. A brief drive through Waco soon reveals that Magnolia and its distinctive subculture are unlike any other entity within the city. Magnolia is not Waco, yet it defines Waco. Within this project, I seek to better understand the unique subculture of Magnolia juxtaposed against the drastically different environment of Waco. To fully understand the inner workings of this subculture, I compile details from frequent visits to Magnolia occurring over a period of three months, noting everything from the layout of the grounds to the products sold to the people who enter Magnolia‘s gates and their tendencies in a field notebook. My studies help me to assemble a comprehensive picture of Magnolia‘s unique subculture and its effects, both positive and negative, upon the city it inhabits. In doing so, I hope to contribute to scholarly understandings of the inequitable outcomes resulting from gentrification within Waco, addressing the lack of knowledge within existing literature about Magnolia‘s role in this process
About the cover and special issue
Get PDFThe Canadian Association for Health Sciences and Policy Research (CAHSPR) Student Working Group is a pan-Canadian, student-run, voluntary group. The Student Working Group was formed in 2008 to enhance and facilitate graduate student and postdoctoral fellow involvement in the annual CAHSPR conference and in the health services and policy research community. When the CAHSPR Student Working Group proposed a collaboration with HPJ to create a special issue highlighting student-led health equity research, HPJ recognized this collaboration presented a unique opportunity that allowed us both to work towards our respective (and complementary) missions to promote trainee skill development and mobilize the outstanding research being produced by students and emerging researchers. Thank you to CAHSPR Student Working Group members and colleagues who contributed to the planning of this special issue: Marichelle Leclair, Sahr Wali, Komal Aryal, Rose Gagnon, Roma Dhamanaskar, Mary Bunka, Carolyn Melro, & Zeenat Ladak.
