Dr. Dawn Martin-Hill (Mohawk, Wolf Clan) is a co-investigator for the Indigenous Health Research Development Program, an ACADRE centre funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and participates in the Globalization and Autonomy Research Project. Her research interests concentrate on Indigenous women, medicine, knowledge and methodology. She is a recipient of the Canada U.S. Fulbright Award and her research has been sponsored by Social Science and Humanities Council, Canada Arts Council, Assembly of First Nations, Aboriginal Healing Foundation and the National Aboriginal Health Organization. She was manager of the International Indigenous Elders Summit 2004 and has produced two documentaries of a series of four. The first one is ‘Jidwá:doh - Let’s Become Again’, a documentary focusing on the Elders’ understanding of historical trauma and directions to begin to heal collectively using Indigenous knowledge and traditional practices. The second one is ‘Onkwànistenhsera - Mothers of our Nation’, a documentary examining the need for Indigenous women to reclaim, restore and revitalize their traditional knowledge that has been lost through centuries of colonialism. Dr. Martin-Hill has published a number of articles on community wellness and Aboriginal women. She works on a national and international level promoting the protection and preservation of Indigenous Knowledge systems and recently has begun a partnership with the Amazon Conservation Team and the National Aboriginal Health Organization. Her book, The Lubicon Lake Nation: Indigenous Knowledge and Power, published by University of Toronto Press will be available in early 2008.
