Sustainable Economies

Indigenous Economics
The academic journal, “Indigenous Economics: Toward A Natural World Order”, was co published by Akwe:kon and Plenty Canada in the summer of 1992. The importance of Indigenous economies was the focus of international attention (including the Bruntland report) because Western leaders recognized that a lot could be learned about sustainable development from Indigenous peoples.
Indigenous Economics: Toward a Natural World Order, published by Akwe:kon Journal/Cornell University. January 1, 1992.

The Rights of Nature
Another resource to better understand Indigenous knowledge that is sustainable economies can be found in:
The Rights of Nature: The Case for a Universal Declaration of the Rights of Mother Earth, published jointly by The Council of Canadians, Fundación Pachamama and Global Exchange (2011). <https://canadians.org/rightsofnature>
