U.S. Case Study: Investing in Tribes, Investing in America

June 25, 2024

On May 29 and 30 in Ottawa, Canada 2020 hosted our annualEconomic Reconciliation Summit: The Indigenous-led Economy. This gathering brought  together Indigenous leaders from across sectors and territories for a vital day of conversation and engagement to explore the balance between growth and sustainability, and ensure that reconciliation is at the heart of future prosperity for all.  In the third of our series of highlighted conversations from this summit, we hear Griffin Marsh (Program Director, Martin Family Initiative) talk to Heidi Todacheene (Senior Advisor to the Secretary at the Office of the Secretary, US Department of the Interior) about how the U.S. Department of the Interior under President Biden is investing in Indigenous land and communities, and what we can learn about progress being achieved by our closest neighbours.
