Routledge Handbook of Indigenous Wellbeing cover

The Routledge Handbook of Indigenous Wellbeing consists of five themes, namely, physical, social and emotional, economic, cultural and spiritual, and subjective wellbeing. It fills a substantial gap in the current literature on the wellbeing of Indigenous people and communities around the world.

This handbook sheds new light on understanding Indigenous wellbeing and its determinants, and aids in the development and implementation of more appropriate policies, as better evidence-informed policymaking will lead to better outcomes for Indigenous populations.

This book provides a reliable and convenient source of information for policymakers, academics and students, and allows readers to make informed decisions regarding the wellbeing of Indigenous populations. It is also a useful resource for non- government organizations to gain insight into relevant global factors for the development of stronger and more effective international policies to improve the lives of Indigenous communities.

"Overall, this text provides both broad and focused insights on multiple aspects of indigenous well-being, and is recommended especially for persons interested in remediating the health inequities between indigenous and non-indigenous peoples." - K. Liu, Tuolumne Mi-Wuk Indian Health Center, CHOICE
