What is an EDO?

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.
