Founding Governance Partners • 3 Organizations Selected
Building the Future of Indigenous Governance Intelligence Together
Indigenous governments are managing increasingly complex responsibilities across governance, administration, economic development, rights and title, financial stewardship, and community priorities.
As Nations continue advancing self-governance, the challenge is no longer access to information. The challenge is ensuring governance systems, laws, policies, committees, decisions, and institutional knowledge work together.
Ixgena is inviting up to 10 Indigenous Governments and Organizations to participate as Founding Governance Partners in exploring the future of governance architecture, decision intelligence, and Nation capacity development.
