Community Mobilization Training for Diabetes Prevention: Implementation and scale-up of a best practice training model for diverse Indigenous communities
FY 2016-17
Summary
Indigenous peoples living in Canada experience far worse health than most Canadians. Rates of type 2 diabetes among Indigenous peoples are 3-5 times the national average. The Kahnawake Schools Diabetes Prevention Project (KSDPP) Community Mobilisation Training (CMT) for Diabetes Prevention aims to engage community stakeholders to develop and implement diabetes prevention strategies in their community. We will study its implementation and impact in 10 First Nations, Inuit and Metis communities across Canada to learn about factors, conditions, and the type of social system that are necessary for the successful implementation and scale-up of a recognized best practice for diabetes prevention.
