New curriculum supports food sovereignty education

The Thunder Bay District Health Unit has launched an Indigenous food sovereignty curriculum for youth in 14 First Nations. Designed by educator Shy-Anne Bartlett, the curriculum incorporates traditional harvesting practices, seasonal foods, and cultural teachings. Available online, it includes resources such as videos in Anishinaabemowin, aiming to deepen children’s understanding of Indigenous food systems and improve their mental well-being.
