Ki thagi daba wanawug unji udu kiwangk: Promoting health and mitigating trauma after the flood and permanent displacement of Lake St Martin First Nation community
EF 2020-21
Résumé
Ki thagi daba wanawug unji udu kiwangk (They were watered out of their land) research explores the impacts of the forced displacement of Lake St. Martin First Nation during the 2011 flood in Manitoba. The flood was rapid and severe, displacing the entire community of 3000 people. Nine years later, about two-thirds of the community members have returned to a new location imposed by the government. The other one-third of people are waiting to return while the province has decided to cut-off assistance. Considering health and wellness after the flood and permanent displacement in Lake St Martin First Nation, this research project will engage Lake St. Martin First Nation community members who have returned to the new community and those who are waiting to return or will not be returning. The research will determine the indicators for health and wellness of the members of Lake St. Martin First Nation in light of their trauma.
