Buy Native
​
MNIBA wants to begin the conversation of “Buying Native First” in framing the long-term impact and contribution Native trade and commerce has on Tribal economic multipliers.
Cooperative Development
​
Cooperative development in Indigenous communities is a approach that emphasizes collective ownership and collaborative decision-making, enabling economic empowerment. By establishing cooperatives, these communities can harness their unique resources, skills, and knowledge to create sustainable businesses that reflect their values and traditions. This model not only strengthens local economies but also enhances social cohesion, as members work together towards common goals.
