In the past, traditional understandings of health often intersected with individual, community, and environmental relationships of well-being, creating an equilibrium of living well. However, colonization and the imposition of colonial policies regarding health, justice, and the environment have dramatically impacted Indigenous peoples' health. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Building on Indigenous knowledge systems of health and critical decolonial theories, the volume's contributors--who are academic and community researchers from Canada, the United States, Sweden, and New Zealand--weave a narrative to explore issues of Indigenous health within four broad themes: ethics and history, environmental and ecological health, impacts of colonial violence on kinship, and Indigenous knowledge and health activism. Chapters also explore how Indigenous peoples are responding to both the health crises in their communities and the ways for non-Indigenous people to engage in building positive health outcomes with Indigenous communities. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eGlobal Indigenous Health\u003c\/i\u003e is unique and timely as it deals with the historical and ongoing traumas associated with colonization and colonialism, understanding Indigenous concepts of health and healing, and ways of moving forward for health equity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Contributors: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Sharon Leslie Acoose \u003cbr\u003e Seth Adema \u003cbr\u003e Peter Butt \u003cbr\u003e John E.
