SUMMARY:Economic Futures Summit
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to the inaugural Economic Futures Summit—a first-of-its-kind\, Indigenous-led gathering to galvanize sustainability solutions and create new pathways for evolving the economy and confronting the climate and nature crises. \nWe need to create solutions for a livable climate\, resilient communities\, sustainable economies and a thriving planet. Indigenous People know many of these solutions and can be partners in innovating many more. \nBut as conservation and climate finance options rapidly evolve and billions of dollars are invested in seeking solutions\, Indigenous People are seldom engaged. \nWhy? \nMany Indigenous communities are not aware of the full range of finance opportunities that exist and how to access them. Many investors are not connected to Indigenous communities’ ideas and solutions. This means that Indigenous economic and finance ideas and leadership are not engaged in today’s solutions\, and are not systematically informing the next generation of new investment models. \nHow do we change that\, so that we can co-create the solutions our Earth critically requires? \n  \nHosted in-person on Turtle Island (North America) and open to participants from around the globe\, this 2.5-day summit will convene 400 Indigenous and non-Indigenous practitioners\, investors\, academics\, thought-leaders and policymakers in climate\, conservation and sustainability. \nThis isn’t your typical conference. We’re not just watering seeds of ideas through hours of conversation without action. We’re actively tending to\, investing in and harvesting solutions with the highest return on investment for our shared planet.
