Examples include revitalising the Mi’kmaq identity in Ktaqamkuk (Newfoundland), building health networks with the Somali diaspora in Ottawa, developing land-based resilience programming for youth in Montreal, establishing social enterprises and improving menstrual hygiene in Godhra, India, or involving youth in participatory sexual and reproductive health education in Yangon, Myanmar.
