Abstract

A food assessment questionnaire was completed by Alutiiq and Eyak peoples of the Chugach Region of Alaska in 2016-2017. This questionnaire, conducted by the Chugach Regional Resource Commission, gathered 87 responses from adults residing in seven communities. The questions related to traditional food systems, food security, and food sovereignty and were organised into six sections: Community Food Resources, Diet and Health, Culture, Organisation and Governance, Food Resources, and Natural Resources and Environment. Nine questions directly addressed food sovereignty. Results revealed the importance of traditional food sources in the communities, foods that are not readily available or are difficult to access, resources that are useful to improve traditional food security, health problems that are perceived to be caused or exacerbated by the lack of traditional foods in the area, traditional foods commonly consumed, and barriers from accessing traditional foods. Additionally, recommendations for improving food systems and addressing barriers are provided.

阿拉斯加中南部沿海地区的传统粮食安全和粮食主权。
2016-2017 年,阿拉斯加楚加奇地区的阿鲁蒂克人和埃雅克人完成了一份食物评估问卷。该问卷由楚加奇地区资源委员会进行,收集了居住在七个社区的成年人的 87 份答复。问题涉及传统粮食系统、粮食安全和粮食主权,分为六个部分:社区食物资源、饮食与健康、文化、组织与管理、食物资源以及自然资源与环境。九个问题直接涉及粮食主权。结果显示了传统食物来源在社区中的重要性、不容易获得或难以获得的食物、有助于改善传统食物安全的资源、认为因该地区缺乏传统食物而导致或加剧的健康问题、通常食用的传统食物以及获得传统食物的障碍。此外,还提供了改善食物系统和消除障碍的建议。
