This article concludes that mainstream health interventions must move beyond Western-centric models to embrace Indigenous worldviews, traditions, and leadership. The success of the RWWAK program demonstrates that community-driven, culturally grounded approaches foster deeper engagement, meaningful health improvements, and healing from historical trauma. Adopting the Two-Eyed Seeing approach, which honors both Indigenous and Western knowledge systems, is essential for creating effective, sustainable health promotion strategies in Indigenous communities. Further efforts should focus on scaling and adapting such models, prioritizing Indigenous voices to ensure programs are authentic, holistic, and supportive of community well-being.

These changes have increased human exposures to respiratory irritants such as ground-level ozone, volatile organic compounds, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Regarding aeroallergens, studies have shown that elevated temperatures and increased carbon dioxide levels have produced prolonged and more robust pollen seasons for most taxa studied.
