Unlocking Resources and Opening Doors to Healthcare for Indigenous People Around the World.
Improving education, sanitation, and environmental health.
Health is defined as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity” (World Health Organization, 1946). Indigenous communities, peoples and nations are defined as those which, having a historical continuity with pre-invasion and pre-colonial societies that developed on their territories, consider themselves distinct from other sectors of the societies now prevailing on those territories, or parts of them. They form at present non-dominant sectors of society and are determined to preserve, develop and transmit to future generations their ancestral territories, and their ethnic identity, as the basis of their continued existence as peoples, in accordance with their own cultural patterns, social institutions and legal system.
“One person can make a difference, and everyone should try.”
— John F. Kennedy
