Voices from the Field

The National Collaborating Centre for Indigenous Health (NCCIH) is one of six National Collaborating Centres across the country, each focusing on a different area of public health, that were established in 2005 by the Government of Canada and funded through the Public Health Agency of Canada. The NCCIH supports a renewed public health system in Canada that is inclusive and respectful of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. Through a holistic, co-ordinated and strengths-based approach to health, the NCCIH fosters links between evidence, knowledge, practice and policy while advancing self-determination and Indigenous knowledge in support of optimal health and well-being. _________________________________________________Le Centre de collaboration nationale de la santé autochtone (CCNSA) est une l'un des six Centres nationale de collaboration à travers le pays, chacun se concentrant sur un sujet distinct en santé publique, qui ont été établie en 2005 par le gouvernement du Canada et
