PRESCHOOL SESSION (OPTIONAL)
«Developing Health Sunday, June 25,
Promotion Policies» 1:30 - 5:00 p.m.
Nancy Dubois , The Health Communication Unit,
Health Promotion Consultation Centre for Health Promotion,
University of Toronto
SUMMARY: Policies define and support particular values and behaviours. "If implemented well,
policy can profoundly influence the way people live and the choices that they make. In terms of
health promotion, policies should make healthier choices easier, and unhealthy ones more
difficult." A significant aspect of policy is that it is long-lasting and difficult to change, once in
place.
This workshop is intended for public and community health practitioners with an interest in
policy as a strategy for bringing about health promoting change. It will provide a practical,
‘hands-on’ orientation to the process of developing and implementing health-promoting policies.
Topics addressed in the workshop will be addressed via the “Policy Roadmap” framework and
will include: assessing the need for policy, building support for policy among key stakeholder
groups, and writing policies. Through a combination of lectures, examples and a short small
group exercise, the workshop will address the development of community-wide policies (e.g.,
active transportation supports), as well as the development of policies for specific settings, such
as workplaces and schools.
3By the end of the workshop, participants should be able to:
understand the purpose of policy as a health promotion strategy
apply a practical model of policy development based on identified
community health needs and stakeholder involvement
set policy goals and objectives
identify strategies to influence decision-makers in the policy development
process.
PRESENTER’S BIOGRAPHY: Nancy Dubois brings to THCU over twenty years of experience
as a trainer and group facilitator, most often with community-based groups or organizational
teams interested in various aspects of health promotion.

ORIGINAL PEOPLES' CEREMONIES
The Opening and Closing is done in a traditional Anishnawbek manner. It is Ceremony. We
generally have four sacred medicines that are burned: tobacco, cedar, sage and sweet grass.
This particular ceremony is as old as time. All original Nations have their own ways to do this. It
is not acceptable to consider one ‘way’ better than another.Instead, all ceremonies are highly
regarded and respected for their sacred nature.
Anishnawbek Way brings a holistic approach that integrates spiritual, physical, mental and
emotional aspects of ourselves and the world around us. Through the process of opening and
closing, we literally explore what surrounds us and what is inside us. We want to ensure that
we are gathering everything we need to carry out the tasks ahead.
It is to help bring the body, mind and spirit of each of us together. Ceremony also reminds of us
how we are to behave in a balanced manner for the benefit of ourselves and generations that
will follow.
We welcome everyone to join in ceremony as we open the Health Promotion Summer School.

Dave Courchene, Jr.
Neeghani Aki Innini (Leading Earth Man)
Anishnabe Nation, Eagle Clan
SUMMARY: Balancing the four elements of our nature needs to be qualified in a model. Dave
Courchene’s presentation will qualify a holistic approach to balance in life using an Indigenous
perspective.
BIOGRAPHY: In 1967, Dave Courchene was invited to be one of 10 Aboriginal youth who
would carry the torch to the Pan American Games. After running the torch over 800 km in 10
days from Minnesota, the final runner Dave Courchene was stopped outside the door to the
Winnipeg Stadium, and the torch was taken from him. Instead of being given a place of honour,
the 10 young runners were taken to a small restaurant across the street, where they watched
on TV as a White runner lit the Flame for the Pan Am Games.
Thirty years later, in 1999, when the Pan Am Games returned to Winnipeg, Dave Courchene
and other original runners were asked to return. This time they carried the torch into the
stadium, where they passed it to a young Aboriginal runner who ignited the Flame. This event
was symbolic of the spirit of survival, strength and perseverance of Aboriginal people. Although
they have endured many generations of deep suffering and hardship because they were displaced
from their connection to the land and traditional spiritual way of life, Aboriginal people have
survived. Aboriginal people are now are returning to and being acknowledged for their original
role as leaders and peacemakers.
Dave Courchene (Nii Gaani Aki Inini) carries out ceremonies and gives teachings to respect life
and the earth, and offers an Aboriginal perspective on various issues at world gatherings in
Brazil, Japan, Israel, the Philippines, the USA and Canada. He is also spiritual advisor to the well-
known Canadian documentary series The Sharing Circle, and co-creator of the 2003 Parent's
Choice Gold Award-winning children's TV program, Tipi Tales. A son of former Manitoba
Grand Chief Dave Courchene Sr., he learned at an early age the responsibilities of leadership
from a long line of leaders and chiefs of his people. Dave sought a vision that led him to his
present quest to bring healing to young people of the world by giving them hope based on the
prophecies of the Elders.
Dave Courchene has worked for the past 25 years toward the fulfillment of a vision - the Turtle
Lodge. The Turtle Lodge is a sacred environment where young people are being reintroduced
to a way of life, based on natural and spiritual laws, that has worked for and sustained Aboriginal
people for thousands of years. The Turtle Lodge also offers workshops for organizations and
government to learn the truth about the history, and the traditional spiritual and land-based way
of life of Aboriginal people. The raising of the Turtle Lodge building in 2002 and 2003 by a
group of committed and gifted volunteers working together on a labour of love, is a testament
to the survival of an ancient way of life.
"It is our belief that Indigenous People have an equal contribution to make toward
11the survival of humanity and also offer a new direction that mankind will have to consider if
there is to be a future for the Earth and the generations yet to come. This belief is premised on
peace and brotherhood for all peoples of the world."

« Santé, environnement et Le lundi, 26 juin, 13 h 30 – 17 h
pensée systémique »
Charles Antoine Rouyer, BA, MES,
Journaliste spécialisé en santé Hygeia Healthy Communication saine Inc.
et environnement
SOMMAIRE : La Charte d’Ottawa (OMS, 1986) et sa démarche socio écologique de promotion
de la santé incarne le mode de pensée systémique, une tournure d’esprit qui 20 ans plus tard est
certes encore marginale, mais qui est toutefois davantage répandue et acceptée de nos jours.
Promouvoir la santé, c’est-à-dire améliorer la qualité de vie en créant des milieux physiques et
sociaux favorables à la santé, implique d’appliquer ce mode de pensée systémique,
multidisciplinaire, multidimensionnelle et interactive. Cela implique aussi de pouvoir traduire
cette pensée concrètement et pouvoir la communiquer aux décideurs, pour des politiques
publiques saines.
SURVOL
Cet atelier présentera :
- les principaux concepts de promotion de la santé dans la perspective de la pensée
systémique et de la communication ;
- divers exemples pratiques de création de milieux physiques et sociaux favorables à la
santé, à l’échelle locale, régionale, nationale et internationale (qualité de l’air, qualité de l’eau;
diversité et intégration culturelle; logement; écotourisme, ecodesign et consommation
durable, investissements socialement responsables.)

« Les notions de santé et de bien-être au sein Le mardi 27 juin, 13 h 30 – 15 h
des collectivités viables »
Véronique Jampierre, Vivre en ville, le regroupement québécois pour
directrice de développement le développement urbain,
villageois et rural viable
SOMMAIRE : Étroitement liée à la notion de viabilité, la santé fait partie des principales
préoccupations de Vivre en Ville en tant qu’organisme prônant les principes du développement
durable appliqués à l’aménagement du territoire et l’urbanisme.
Au même titre que la protection de l'environnement, chaque projet de Vivre en Ville intègre
dans ses objectifs l'amélioration du bien-être et l'accès à un environnement sain pour tous. Les
questions de santé environnementale concernent notamment la qualité des habitats, de l'air, de
l'eau des sols et de l'environnement sonore. La santé et le bien-être dépendent également d'un
juste équilibre psychologique favorisé par la recherche d’une plus grande équité sociale. À titre
d'exemple, en initiant le projet Calend'AIR, Vivre en Ville répondait à un besoin d'information du
grand public sur les interrelations entre la qualité de l'air intérieur des bâtiments et la santé des
individus. Fréquemment en contact avec la population dans le cadre d'un programme
d'intervention à domicile en efficacité énergétique, les intervenants de Vivre en Ville ont souligné
la récurrence des problèmes de santé liés à la mauvaise qualité de l'air des logements visités
(moisissures, infiltrations d'air, sur-isolation, etc.). Aussi, le Calend'AIR a permis d’expliquer ces
liens de cause à effets et de donner des conseils simples pour y pallier concrètement au
quotidien.
Indirectement, les autres projets de Vivre en Ville en faveur du développement des transports
alternatifs à l'automobile, des toitures végétales ou de jardinage écologique induisent également
une amélioration de la santé de chacun.
DESCRIPTION DE L’ORGANISME : Vivre en ville est un organisme d’intérêt public qui a vu le
jour en 1994. La portée de son action est nationale tout en étant fortement implantée dans sa
communauté.
Vivre en ville est une coalition d'individus et d'organismes qui s'attarde à la promotion du
développement durable et dont la présence est essentielle à l'échange d'idées et l'élaboration de
solutions novatrices. Vivre en ville souhaite renforcer la qualité de vie en milieu urbain par
l'application des principes de développement urbain viable de façon à rendre celui-ci plus
attrayant et à faire en sorte qu'il réponde à une gamme plus étendue de besoins et de clientèles.
Vivre en ville poursuit son action par la sensibilisation de la population et des décideurs publics,
par sa participation à des colloques, à des audiences ou à des consultations publiques, ainsi que
par la réalisation de projets d'amélioration de la qualité de vie inspirés d’expériences
internationales mais appliqués tant à l'échelle des quartiers urbains, des villages, que des milieux
ruraux.

« VIE ACTIVE 2010 : la stratégie en matière du Le mercredi 28 juin, 11h – 12 h 30
sport et de l’activité physique de l’Ontario »
Jean- Serge (JS) Bidal, Direction des sports et des loisirs
Conseiller en politiques Ministère de la Promotion
de la santé de l’Ontario
SOMMAIRE : L’impact d’un mode de vie sédentaire sur notre système de santé est troublant.
Selon des estimations effectuées en 2001, le fardeau économique associé à la sédentarité est
évalué à 1,8 milliard de dollars en dépenses directes et à 1,6 milliard de dollars en dépenses
indirectes. De toute évidence, il est grand temps de prendre les mesures qui s’imposent pour
réduire la sédentarité.
VIE ACTIVE 2010 est la stratégie adoptée par l’Ontario pour encourager l’activité physique et
sportive. Élaborée en consultation avec des groupes d’intérêt de toute la province, la stratégie
VIE ACTIVE 2010 précise les principales approches stratégiques qui vont nous permettre d’offrir
davantage de programmes d’activité physique et sportive dans la collectivité.
VIE ACTIVE 2010 est une ambitieuse entreprise. Le Canada se prépare à accueillir les Jeux
olympiques d’hiver de 2010 et nous voulons faire en sorte que les athlètes ontariens aient
toutes les chances d’entrer dans la compétition au plus haut niveau possible. Il faudra consolider
le système sportif dans la collectivité et prendre les mesures nécessaires pour mettre toutes les
chances du côté de nos athlètes. Nous avons en outre fixé pour l'an 2010 un objectif tout aussi
ambitieux en matière d'activité physique. Grâce à diverses initiatives éducatives et
promotionnelles, et à une augmentation des occasions et possibilités d’activité physique au sein
des collectivités, nous avons tracé la route pour porter à 55 % le niveau d’activité physique d’ici
la fin de la présente décennie.
