WASHINGTON - After more than a decade, economic policies which impact tribal communities will be systematically evaluated by interested stakeholders at a ground-breaking economic policy summit to be held in Phoenix, Arizona. The purpose of the Summit is to identify federal policies that have successfully stimulated tribal economies. Most importantly, the Summit will address persistent barriers through proactive policy enhancements. Through the act of sharing information about successful programs and best practices, discussion facilitators will utilize the innovative approach called the "World Cafe" method to create dynamic networks of conversation. The aim of the discussion is to catalyze a community's own collective intelligence around its most important questions and possible answers.
