Teachings from the land Indigenous people, our health, our land, and our children / [citation] : Margo Greenwood, Sarah de Leeuw. - [Edmonton : Intercultural Education Program, University of Alberta], 2007.

In this article we discuss the interconnectivity of Indigenous people, their cultures, and ways of life with the land and the idea that the health and well-being of Indigenous children, their communities, and ultimately their Nations arise from their connection with the land and from a strength of culture that grows from this connectivity. We argue further that these connections, leading to a holistic understanding of health, are intrinsically linked to education.
