This presentation discusses the meaning of food sovereignty, and key findings of a recently completed study of food insecurity, access and traditional foods conducted in the Pacific Northwest in the wake of COVID-19. Five key findings of the research are discussed:

  1. Food security has remained high,
  2. Food assistance use is much higher than pre-pandemic rates,
  3. Rising consumer pricing is a major concern,
  4. Majority of tribal people report engagement with traditional foods, and
  5. Traditional foods have been widely reported as difficult to obtain.

In addition, we discuss lessons learned while working with tribal communities around food sovereignty and security, and the meaning of traditional foods that dietitians should consider when working in tribal communities.
