What Happened to the Indigenous Healing Paradigm?: Unfolding the Epistemic Injustice

Saturday, October 26, 2024
4:15 PM – 4:45 PM CT
Location: KC Convention Center, Room 2101
This critical exploratory literature review aims to illustrate the nature of epistemic injustice with indigenous knowledge by methodically analyzing and documenting the qualitative understanding of the "healing" process in the indigenous paradigm versus mainstream health care. This lays a robust platform for future research on epistemic injustice and remedial alliances.

Learning Objectives:

  1. To explore literature and outline the framework of epistemic injustice on indigenous healing.
  2. To methodically explore, document, and describe the Indigenous construct of ‘healing’ with intertwined spiritual, cultural, and environmental paradigmatic structure.
  3. To outline the implications of Indigenous healing paradigms in the contemporary multi professional-multidisciplinary health care field.
