i2i Community is a strategic development partner focused on shaping and implementing social and economic development programs in true partnership with communities - programs that honor sovereignty and build lasting prosperity.​

The Challenges we are Addressing

Indigenous communities are too often faced with development models that are imposed from the outside, fragmented, and disconnected from culture and long-term goals. Key challenges include:

​

  1. Externally driven development

  2. Short-term, fragmented initiatives

  3. Neglect of social foundations

  4. Limited access to strategic support

  5. Power imbalances in development

  6. Underinvestment in local leadership

  7. Lack of pathways for youth and future leaders

  8. Barriers to financing and enterprise growth

Led by Community. Grounded in Culture. Built for the Future.
