Routledge Handbook of Indigenous Wellbeing (Routledge International Handbooks)

by Matthew Manning (Editor), Christopher Fleming (Editor), Christopher Fleming (Editor), Matthew Manning (Editor)

Synopsis

The Routledge Handbook of Indigenous Wellbeing consists of 5 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 policy making will lead to better outcomes for indigenous populations.

This book provides a reliable and convenient source of information for policy makers, 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 organisations to gain insight into relevant global factors for development of stronger and more effective international policies to improve the lives of indigenous communities.
