The statement on Cultural Misappropriation in Integrative Health addresses the need for integrative healthcare to honor whole-person healing through culturally respectful and equitable practices. It highlights the harms caused by colonization, capitalism, exploitation, biomedical dominance, and research bias, which have historically marginalized traditional healing systems. The document calls for cultural humility, respect, appreciation, and genuine cultural exchange, emphasizing acknowledgment, fair collaboration, policy change, and reparative actions. Practitioners and organizations are urged to commit to honoring the original purposes, voices, and communities of the traditions they engage with.
