The Aguaruna and their Indigenous Foods

In recent decades Indigenous Peoples globally have experienced rapid and dramatic shifts in lifestyle that are unprecedented in history. Moving away from their own self-sustaining, local food systems into industrially derived food supplies, these changes have adverse effects on dietary quality and health. The Centre for Indigenous Peoples' Nutrition and Environment (CINE) based in McGill University, Canada, responded to requests from indigenous leaders from around the world to help stop loss of traditional food system knowledge with research and community-driven activities that bridge the generations. This series of videos presents highlights from 12 indigenous community areas in 9 countries, and is intended to contribute to the evidence base used to make global policies to protect Indigenous Peoples' food resources and promote good health. The Awajún Indigenous People highlighted in this video live in the Peruvian Amazon on the Rio Cenepa, and practice a mostly traditional lifestyle using more than 200 species of local food resources. Researchers based with the Instituto de Investigación Nutricional (IIN) in Lima formed a strong partnership with the women’s organization of the Organización de Desarrollo de las Comunidades Fronterizas de Cenepa (ODECOFROC). Together they documented the local food system and encourage greater use of high quality traditional foods to promote community health, with particular attention to children.
