APEC 2630, delivered via virtual delivery, is a foundational course in Tulo Centre’s Applied Economics Program and will include students from Indigenous communities in Canada and New Zealand. In this course, students investigate topics related to Indigenous self-governance and economic development globally, with particular focus on Canada and New Zealand. Topics include the impact of Covid-19 on Indigenous communities & economies; pre-contact Indigenous institutions, innovations and economies; the destruction of Indigenous institutions; systemic issues and gaps impacting Indigenous communities; the economic rationale for implementing Indigenous government and jurisdiction; Indigenous resource management; Indigenous fiscal powers; and creative destruction & the formula for change. The course is capped off with the Tulo Centre’s Building a Sustainable Indigenous Economy game.
