TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - Leisure, cultural continuity, and life promotion JO - Annals of leisure research A1 - Yuen, F. A1 - Ranahan, P. A1 - Linds, W. A1 - Goulet, L. SP - 92 EP - 113 VL - 24 IS - 1 N2 - Colonization has left in its wake alarming suicide rates for Indigenous youth. The suicide rate of Indigenous youth in Canada is five to six times higher than their non-Indigenous counterparts. This article presents the findings of a research project that explored and promoted wellness and life promotion with Indigenous youth living on a reserve in Saskatchewan, Canada. Data collection occurred through an arts-based workshop, where youth collectively created stories about healing, life, relationships, hope, and ceremony. Specifically, authors discuss a two-eyed seeing approach and emphasize the importance of cultural continuity, cultural connectedness, and cultural revitalization when considering the process in which leisure programmes and services are organized. © 2019 Australia and New Zealand Association of Leisure Studies.
