  1. Nutrition programs work better when they include #Indigenous food knowledge

    Researchers found nutrition programs work better when they include Indigenous food knowledge, local languages, and traditional practices.

    By Raquel Brandao, July 24, 2026

    Excerpt: "Cameras, cooking and conversation

    "Some things worked. #Storytelling, #workshops, and #CookingDemonstrations turned up again and again across the 39 studies, alongside #TalkingCircles, #ShortFilms and #SmartphoneApps.

    "The common thread is direction. Each of these methods lets people speak in their own words rather than sit and receive instruction.

    "In #NewZealand ( #Aotearoa ), researchers built a mobile health app together with #Māori and #Pasifika partners. The language, the stories, and the pictures all came from the communities the app was meant for.

    "Speaking with Earth.com, Rao described a project she led. 'In my own work, and one of the papers reviewed, I have used cameras and #DigitalTools with young women and men in an Indigenous community in #India to document their traditional food knowledges by speaking to the elders, visiting the forests and local markets, talking to women engaged in #foraging and #FoodPreparation.'

    "That project is one of the 39 studies in the review. An earlier paper followed ten Santhal young people in eastern India who were trained to make films.

    "They made nearly 50 films and screened them in their own villages. Older relatives supplied much of what went into them.

    Elders as teachers

    "Who holds the knowledge matters as much as what the knowledge is. #Elders, #healers, #farmers, and #women each carry different parts of it.

    "None of it arrives as a curriculum. It moves between generations through cooking, gathering and long conversation, which is exactly what a nutrition leaflet cannot carry.

    " 'Reclaiming and recognising #IndigenousKnowledge , values and practices to address the different elements of nutrition and health involves recognising intergenerational and wider social relations, and engaging everyone from the elders, healers, educators and farmers to service providers, policymakers and academics, to together raise issues and find solutions,' said Rao.

    "Traditional foods carry knowledge of the local landscape in a way nothing else does. The review treats them as practical resources rather than heritage."

  32. Yes I still play #Overwatch even though it can be painful sometimes. Nothing makes me sadder than being a tank with a Moira playing as a damage character. In an earlier match, I outstripped everyone else in the match for healing done as Moira, she does such good healing, but people try to use her damage abilities to kill tanks, and it simply does not work. Respect and cherish your #healers y'all. glhf #gaymers
