Abstract

Indigenous and Tribal Peoples and Cancer aims to provide an overview of cancer and Indigenous and Tribal peoples—from prevention and diagnosis to treatment and cancer care. It considers cancer incidence, mortality, prevalence, survival, and inequities for Indigenous and Tribal peoples globally. Most importantly, it extends beyond issues and challenges, to offer an Indigenous-knowledges, strengths-based approach to successful health interventions, research projects, research translation, and living well—both with and beyond cancer. It incorporates contributions from 223 individual authors, whose knowledge spans a wide range of disciplines and experiences. Some of the contributions are highly personal, while others report on the latest science and issues for the future.
