It is one of many possible philosophies. It uses the Medicine Wheel to represent the Aboriginal perspective. It uses the Aboriginal Capacity And Developmental Research Environments program, funded by the Institute of Aboriginal Peoples’ Health and the Canadian Institute of Health Research, as an example of an institutional organization involved in health research with Aboriginal people. It uses the life cycle of the their people about the many gifts of the Creator. In this teaching the Butterfly teaches us the cycle of life using the Medicine Wheel in a good way. In this teaching, the four directions teach us about the Community, which is at the center of the wheel surrounded by all the colors of man: white, yellow, red, and black, all working together in a good wayengWith permission of the license/copyright holderAboriginal theologyhealth ethicsPhilosophyBioethicsHealth ethicsArticle
