Indigenous Development

Indigenous development refers to efforts that support the growth and well-being of Indigenous communities by respecting their cultural values, traditions, and self-determination. It involves improving infrastructure, education, healthcare, and economic opportunities in ways that align with Indigenous perspectives and needs. The goal is to empower these communities to achieve sustainable progress while preserving their unique identities and rights. This approach values Indigenous knowledge and fosters community-led initiatives, ensuring development benefits are culturally appropriate and create long-term resilience and equity.
