Decolonizing Health

Decolonizing Health involves recognizing and addressing how colonial history and practices have influenced healthcare systems, often marginalizing Indigenous and underserved communities. It aims to challenge dominant medical models, incorporate traditional knowledge, and promote culturally respectful, equitable, and inclusive healthcare. By doing so, it seeks to remove biases and systemic barriers, ensuring all communities have access to healing practices that honor their cultural identities and lived experiences, ultimately fostering more just and effective health outcomes for everyone.
