Abstract

The Best Practices section focuses on those practices in economic development within Aboriginal communities which are seen as excellent examples of 'best practices,' those activities which produce excellent or outstanding results or that simply make a difference. This section is intended to provide ideas for action. We will attempt to highlight economic development initiatives from across Canada. For this issue, the Best Practices were selected from the 1997 CANDO Recognition Award winners. We felt that as a group that they represent some of the best practices in economic development within the Aboriginal community.
