While land is a nexus for culture, identity, governance, and health, as a concept land is rarely addressed in conversations and policy decisions about Indigenous health and well-being. Indigenous food sovereignty, a concept which embodies Indigenous peoples' ability to control their food systems, including markets, production modes, cultures and environments, has received little attention as a framework to approach Indigenous health especially for Indigenous people living in urban spaces. Instead, discussions about Indigenous food sovereignty have largely focused on global and remote and rural communities. Addressing this gap in the literature, this article presents exploratory work conducted with Waasegiizhig Nanaandawe'iyewigamig and Shkagamik-Kwe Health Centre, two Indigenous-led Aboriginal Health Access Centres in urban service centers located in Northern Ontario, Canada.
虽然土地是文化、身份、治理和健康的纽带，但在关于原住民健康和福祉的对话和政策决策中，土地这一概念很少被提及。原住民粮食主权是一个体现原住民控制其粮食系统的能力的概念，包括市场、生产模式、文化和环境，但作为一种方法来探讨原住民健康的框架，尤其是对于生活在城市空间的原住民来说，它几乎没有得到关注。相反，关于原住民粮食主权的讨论主要集中在全球、偏远和农村社区。为了填补这一文献空白，本文介绍了在加拿大安大略省北部的两个城市服务中心的原住民主导的原住民健康接入中心 Waasegiizhig Nanaandawe'iyewigamig 和 Shkagamik-Kwe Health Centre 进行的探索性工作。
