“…3 Stemming from the diagnoses of drug use in a general population of adolescents offers nursing professionals information that guides their care from the social and cultural diversity, which is quite necessary in a country like Colombia with notable multiethnic and multicultural wealth. 27,28 To provide satisfactory care, nursing must adjust cognitively to cultural values, beliefs, and ways of life of individuals. 29 This gains importance when working with adolescents, which requires views that generate substantial changes in their practices and life styles of this age group.…”

Objective. To estimate the prevalence of lifetime use of psychoactive drugs in adolescents from Cartagena, Colombia. Methodology. Cross-sectional study carried out with a representative sample of 244 adolescents between 13 and 17 years of age from the general population. The study inquired on use of psychoactive drugs at any time of their lives (cocaine, ecstasy, inhalants, marihuana, or any drug that can be injected). The explanatory variables were adjusted through logistic regression. Results. Participants were from low and middle socio-economic levels. The lifetime prevalence of use of any drug was 20%. A total of 19% of the participants reported daily cigarette use and 18% had risky alcohol use. The following risk factors were related to drug use some time in their lives: daily cigarette use (OR=30.2; CI95%=11.8-77.6), not being religious (OR=5.8; CI95%=1.8- 18.8), male gender (OR=3.7; CI95%=1.1-13.1), and risky alcohol use (OR=3.5; CI95%=1.2-9.8). Conclusion. Use of any illegal drug some time in their lives by adolescents is high, constituting a healthcare problem, which should be addressed by government organizations. This use was related to male gender, not being religious, cigarette smoking, and having risky alcohol use.

“…Culture refers broadly to the customs, practices, and beliefs of a particular nation, people, or social group (Morris, 2010). Culture is of particular importance to Indigenous youth within the context of colonial history and present-day realities, where Indigenous cultures, languages, and practices have been marginalized (Kinsey, 2014;Nelson Wilson, 2017;White Morris, 2019).…”

This paper introduces an integrative (or braided) approach to Indigenous youth mental health, designed in response to a synthesis of knowledge from three systematic literature reviews and four informant consultations with mental health providers in various disciplines. The braided approach includes core principles of Indigenous Healing models (IH), Child and Youth Care (CYC) approaches, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) practices. The purpose of this approach is to best serve the mental and spiritual health needs of Indigenous youth across Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings of this research project informed the design and implementation of an online Indigenous youth mental health program, which is discussed in relation to the research.

“…Several writers (Dean, 2001;Kumagai and Lypson, 2009;Morris, 2010;Lum, 2011) are critical of cultural competence, particularly about the methodology and operationalisation of it. Dean ( 2001) is critical about the construct of cultural competence and maintains that cultural competence 'is consistent with the belief that knowledge brings control and effectiveness, and that this is an ideal to be achieved above all else' (Dean, 2001, p. 624).…”

Disrupting normalised discourses: ways of knowing, being and doing cultural competence

The concept of cultural competence is a multifaceted construct that requires careful consideration as it raises questions as to whose ‘truth’ is being advocated. This paper draws on findings from a qualitative study which used an indigenous methodology of yarning to investigate early childhood educators’ understandings and perspectives of cultural competence. Adopting a poststructuralist approach to grounded theory, data were analysed to identify themes that reflected educators’ understandings and perspectives. This paper presents a snapshot of these themes along with a framework of positioning self in relationship to ways of knowing, being and doing cultural competence. I conclude by suggesting that this framework can provide opportunity for educators to disrupt normalised discourses and re-conceptualise cultural competence.
