Indigenous People?

Bagelman, Caroline. "Unsettling food security: the role of young people in Indigenous food system

revitalization." Children & Society 32 (2018): 219-232.

In the article “Unsettling food security: the role of young people in Indigenous food

system revitalization.”, the author states that are the Canadian indigenous people are facing food

insecurity due to the underproduction of indigenous foods. I found this source useful as it

explains the awareness on the importance of indigenous food among Canadian indigenous

communities and what can be done to resolve the problem.

In the article “Eating in the City: A Review of the Literature on Food Insecurity and

Indigenous People Living in Urban Spaces.”, the author describes the strengthening of Indigenous

people groups and communities to decide their own needs and ways forward. I found this source

useful as it explains the profundity of understanding needed to plan viable methodologies, and

approaches that meet the needs of Indigenous families in different urban areas.

In the article, “Gender Roles, Food System Biodiversity, and Food Security in Indigenous

Peoples’ Communities.”, the author defines the knowledge and practises of Indigenous people in

regard to their food insecurities and wealth. I found this source useful as it helps me to understand

the importance of food in our lives and how people protect their unique foods and traditions in the

society and also explains the gender roles in food biodiversity.
