Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic posed a grave threat not only to Indigenous people's health and well-being, but also to Indigenous communities and societies. This applies also to the Indigenous peoples of the Arctic, where unintentional effects of public health actions to mitigate the spread of virus may have long-lasting effects on vulnerable communities. This study aim was to identify and describe Sámi perspectives on how the Sámi society in Sweden was specifically affected by the pandemic and associated public health actions during 2020-2021. A mixed-method qualitative case study approach was employed, including a media scoping review and stakeholder interviews. The media scoping review included 93 articles, published online or in print, from January 2020 to 1 September 2021, in Swedish or Norwegian, regarding the pandemic-related impacts on Sámi society in Sweden. The review informed a purposeful selection of 15 stakeholder qualitative interviews. Thematic analysis of the articles and interview transcripts generated five subthemes and two main themes: "weathering the storm" and "stressing Sámi culture and society". These reflect social dynamics which highlight stressors towards, and resilience within, the Sámi society during the pandemic. The results may be useful when evaluating and developing public health crisis response plans concerning or affecting the Sámi society in Sweden.

萨米社区对 COVID-19 大流行病的看法:瑞典北极地区的混合方法案例研究。
COVID-19 大流行不仅对土著人民的健康和福祉构成了严重威胁,也对土著社区和社会构成了严重威胁。这也适用于北极地区的原住民,在那里,为减少病毒传播而采取的公共卫生行动的无意影响可能会对脆弱社区产生长期影响。本研究旨在确定和描述萨米人对 2020-2021 年期间瑞典萨米社会如何受到大流行病和相关公共卫生行动的具体影响的看法。本研究采用了混合方法定性案例研究法,包括媒体范围审查和利益相关者访谈。媒体范围审查包括从 2020 年 1 月至 2021 年 9 月 1 日在网上或印刷媒体上发表的 93 篇瑞典语或挪威语文章,内容涉及大流行病对瑞典萨米社会的相关影响。通过审查,有目的地选择了 15 个利益相关者进行定性访谈。对文章和访谈记录的主题分析产生了五个次主题和两个主题:"风雨同舟 "和 "萨米文化与社会的压力"。这些主题反映了社会动态,凸显了萨米社会在大流行病期间所承受的压力和复原力。在评估和制定涉及或影响瑞典萨米社会的公共卫生危机应对计划时,这些结果可能会有所帮助。
