Traditional peoples and communities (TPCs), such as indigenous peoples and (communities descended from escaped African slaves), face challenges related to food security and the impact of the food environment on their health. Changes in food systems, urbanisation and loss of territorial rights have contributed to less healthy eating patterns, with increased consumption of ultra-processed foods and a higher prevalence of chronic non-communicable diseases. Despite this, there are gaps in knowledge about how the food environments of these communities are investigated, especially in relation to the physical, economic, political and sociocultural dimensions.
This scoping review will be conducted following the methodological framework developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute for scoping reviews, and its reporting will adhere to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-Extension for Scoping Reviews checklist. A systematic search will be carried out in the following databases: PubMed, SciELO, Web of Science, Embase and EBSCO, using terms related to traditional populations and food environments. The studies to be included will be selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria defined based on the population, concept and context technique. The study population will include TPCs, such as indigenous peoples and ; the concept will address the food environment in its physical, economic, political and sociocultural dimensions; and the context will encompass studies conducted at a global level, without any restrictions on geographic location. The study type will include original articles and grey literature. The screening of studies will involve independent reviewers and predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data synthesis will be presented in tables, including information on focus, geographic scope and methodology of the selected studies. The risk of bias will be assessed using the Risk of Bias in Non-randomised Studies of Exposure tool.
As the study does not involve the collection of primary data or human participants, it does not require ethical approval. The results will be submitted to peer-reviewed journals and presented at public health and nutrition conferences, contributing to the advancement of knowledge on food environments of TPCs.
传统民族和社区（如原住民以及[非洲黑奴后裔社区]）面临与粮食安全以及食品环境对其健康影响相关的挑战。食品系统的变化、城市化以及领土权的丧失导致了不健康的饮食模式，超加工食品的消费量增加，慢性非传染性疾病的患病率更高。尽管如此，关于如何调查这些社区的食品环境，尤其是在物理、经济、政治和社会文化层面，仍存在知识空白。
本综述将遵循乔安娜·布里格斯循证卫生保健中心制定的综述方法框架进行，其报告将遵循系统评价和Meta分析扩展版的系统评价与Meta分析优先报告清单。将在以下数据库中进行系统检索：PubMed、SciELO、科学网、Embase和EBSCO，使用与传统人群和食品环境相关的术语。根据基于人群、概念和背景技术定义的纳入和排除标准选择纳入研究。研究人群将包括传统民族和社区，如原住民以及[非洲黑奴后裔社区]；概念将涉及食品环境的物理、经济、政治和社会文化层面；背景将涵盖在全球层面开展的研究，对地理位置无任何限制。研究类型将包括原创文章和灰色文献。研究筛选将由独立评审员进行，并依据预定义的纳入和排除标准。数据综合将以表格形式呈现，包括所选研究的重点、地理范围和方法等信息。将使用非随机暴露研究中的偏倚风险工具评估偏倚风险。
由于本研究不涉及收集原始数据或人类参与者，因此无需伦理批准。研究结果将提交给同行评审期刊，并在公共卫生和营养会议上展示，以促进对传统民族和社区食品环境知识的进步。
