Indigenous communities continue to face health disparities due to risk factors, limited access to healthcare, and historical trauma. The Indigenous Determinants of Health (IDoH) recognize autonomous initiatives by communities for resilient well-being. Developing an ontology for IDoH aims to standardize knowledge management, categorizing factors influencing health outcomes in Indigenous communities and support effective health governance and policy-making across Tribal, state, and federal levels.
