I’m excited to share that I will be presenting at the First Conference on Global Indigenous Studies (CGIS 2024) at Indiana University, Bloomington, from November 15-17! I’ll be delivering two presentations: 1) The Term ‘Western Medicine’: An Overgeneralization That Neglects Indigenous Traditional Medicine. 2) The Integration of the Underlying Approach of Indigenous Traditional Medicine into National Healthcare Policy in Bolivia. It’s an honor to contribute to this global dialogue and engage with scholars, practitioners, and leaders in Indigenous studies, such as
Aluki Kotierk, president of Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated
Eduardo S. Brondizio, IU distinguished professor of Anthropology
K. David Harrison, vice provost at VinUniversity, Vietnam
Mirian Masaquiza Jerez, Indigenous Peoples and Development Branch-Secretariat of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues.
