What is an EDO?
![atvrule.gif (180 bytes)](atvrule.gif)
Economic Development Officers (EDOs) are
the unsung heros of Aboriginal communities. EDOs promote economic development in a
variety of ways. Their work may be anything from negotiating oil and gas agreements,
to helping entrepreneurs develop good business plans, to promoting local employment and
education. An EDO is also often involved in the broader realm of community
development, and must have a vision of economic development that is modeled around
community values.
