Indigenous Leadership: Governance and Development Project

The premise of the work is that economic development stories need to be shared among those involved in economic development, both in the community where the economic development activities take place and in other communities looking to undertake economic development. [...] One of the long-term goals is to develop a set of resources that is Indigenous-led and available to Indigenous communities across the province and the country. [...] To this end, a draft of the case study is shared with the community, and the case study is not finalized until the community gives its agreement. [...] Map of the Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan Access to the Athabasca region is primarily fly-in since only one gravel road connects the region to the rest of the province. [...] The region quickly became a hub for uranium mining due to the high demand for the mineral and the presence of some of the world's largest and richest deposits.
