Community Development

It is Waubetek's mandate to support First Nation community economic development that builds stronger economies and business opportunities. We do this through:

• Waubetek offers quarterly business Workshops on a variety of topics to assist Aboriginal entrepreneurs and First Nation Economic Development Officers.
• Waubetek implements regional economic strategies to assist First Nations and Aboriginal entrepreneurs in the Fisheries and Mining sectors.
• Waubetek offers youth development initiatives to help Aboriginal youth seek business ownership as a career (conferences, workshops, summer employment).
• Waubetek has an Aquaculture Business Technician on staff to assist applicants with their Aquaculture-related businesses anywhere in Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
• Waubetek hosts a First Nation Economic Development Officer Tool-kit of resources, templates and leading practices for EDO's in North-East Ontario.
