CLEBC’s Indigenous Economic Development program will be held on Friday, April 11. We invite you to submit an outline of the paper and presentation you would like to present at the webinar.

Effective Indigenous governance has often been closely tied to effective business development. We will explore how to develop potential best practices for economic development models and structures in the context of industry, technology, services sectors, construction, land development, and finance.

Having a sound understanding of the options and context for Indigenous business will assist industry, government, and Indigenous leaders in forming effective business and governance structures and successful business partnerships.

Would you like to present at the Indigenous Economic Development program?

If you have done work in the last few years on innovative developments, business or government structures, obtained private financing or changed the world for on-reserve projects, done some innovated economic development off-reserve, or something else awesome regarding Indigenous governance or economic development, we now encourage you to submit your proposal to present at this program.

Registration is also open for Indigenous Economic Development. Learn more and sign up here.

Please send your submissions and/or any questions you have via email to: Teresa Sheward at teresas@cle.bc.ca with the following information:

  • your name and organization;
  • proposed topic; and
  • ½- to 1-page outline of your proposed paper and presentation.

All submissions received by Tuesday, February 11, will be reviewed and considered by the Course Chair and Planning Committee.
