First Nations women

First Nations women are Indigenous women belonging to the original peoples of North America, including Canada. They have rich histories, cultures, and traditions connected to their communities and territories. Throughout history and today, First Nations women often face unique challenges, including disparities in health, education, and economic opportunities, alongside issues related to cultural preservation and systemic discrimination. Recognizing their vital roles in society and their resilience is essential for understanding Indigenous identities and working toward equality and justice for all First Nations peoples.
