INDIGENOUS PEOPLE BARRIES

AND
STRATEGIC EQUITABLE OPPOTURNITY FOR INDIGENOUS
PEOPLE TO SUCEED

INTRODUCTION: Indigenous Peoples experience greater

poverty rates, homelessness, and starvation. They have lower
literacy rates and fewer access to health care, which
contributes to their poverty. Indigenous people are the
poorest group in any Latin American country. The impacts of
colonialization are still being felt by First Nations peoples. As
a population group in Canada, they are more prone to
encounter overcrowding, food shortages, unemployment,
mental health difficulties in their adolescence, and poor
levels of trust in the judicial system, among other things.
Eight of the most pressing challenges for Indigenous Peoples
in Canada were key-issues-Indigenous-Peoples-Canada.
Complex and inextricably linked - so much so that the
government, scholars, policymakers, and Indigenous leaders
are stymied by the magnitude. It is difficult to single out one
problem as the worst.

the root of which is that supreme

School program. As per Canadian
Statistics, less than 40% of
Aboriginal people have no
intermediate (high) school or
graduation diploma, compared to
some % of the remainder of a
Canadian population.

HIGHER UNEMPLOYMENT RATES
are arriving in front as another
barrier. Indigenous peoples have
traditionally had greater rates of
unemployment than non-
Indigenous people. Indigenous
peoples' employment rates in
Canada can't rise throughout 2006
and 2016.
Health is wealth, but indigenous
people have POORER HEALTH.
According to the World Health
Organization's inquiry into health
determinants, European
colonialism is increasingly
recognised as a prevalent and basic
determinant of Indigenous health.
Many Indigenous communities
have made achievements to
enhance health education, but
despite these gains, Indigenous
people continue to be at a greater
risk of sickness and mortality than
non-Indigenous Peoples. Chronic
disorders such as heart disease and
diabetes are becoming more
common. Income, social issues,
and health all have clear
correlations. Indigenous children
have a greater risk of respiratory
difficulties and other infectious
illnesses than non-Indigenous
positive. Consider collaborating with
local community employment
professionals to deliver a series of
courses on how to draught a resume
and cover letter, how to be prepared
for an interview, and how to host
several simulated interviews and
provide practise opportunities.
Every First Nation and community is
different and distinct. Invest the time to
visit the neighbourhood closest to your

culture, history, issues, and

your workplace to discuss their culture
and values. Ensure that everyone in
your business, including executives,
attends a cultural awareness training.
To be durable and effective, cultural
diversity recognition and respect must
be systematic and supported from up

CONCLUSION: Indigenous peoples have lived in Canada since

the beginning of time. Before Europeans arrived in North
America, they established sophisticated social, political,
economic, and cultural institutions. Traditional Indigenous
methods of existence were irreversibly transformed as a
result of colonialism and European settlement.
