What’s happening this month?

On Thursday, March 23th,  the brown bag series will feature Dr. Vincent Werito, Patrick Werito, M.Ed., and  Elroy B. Keetso, M.C.R.P.

Partnerships for Addressing Health Disparities: Using a Diné (Indigenous) centered Approach in Community Engaged Research to Promote Community Well-being and Educational Sovereignty

The presentation presents on research projects addressing critical isses in behavioral mental health, community public health, and community leadership using a Diné-centered approach to community engagement and research. Using a Diné centered community based participatory research (CBPR) approach, the studies aim to develop transformative ways for engaging local community members to move towards community rebuilding, educational sovereignty, and strategic planning for Diné (Indigenous) communities to recover and revitalize their languages and traditional ecological knowledge for long term community wellbeing.

Dr. Vincent Werito

Dr. Werito’s past research examines the experiences of Indigenous youth in education, identifying exemplary practices in the education of Indigenous youth, and his most recent research projects were funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to examine community engaged research partnerships, community defined understandings of wellbeing, and vaccine equity. He is a co-author of the book titled, Transforming Diné Education and he has also published in the Journal of American Indian Education, Journal of Language, Identity and Education and Health Education & Behavior.
