Session Details
As the natural resource sector confronts the imperative to deliver more inclusive and sustainable outcomes, Indigenous women—long recognized as pillars of strength, resilience, and wisdom—are driving transformative change. Across regions like Canada and Ecuador, they are building enterprises rooted in Indigenous culture and values, sustainability, and local governance. This panel brings together diverse voices and lived experiences from both countries to explore how Indigenous-led entrepreneurship can generate long-term shared value in resource economies. Panellists will discuss how their work contributes to economic diversification, intergenerational leadership, and community well-being, while navigating the complex dynamics of the extractive sector.
