The purpose of the Market Research Report is to identify and review existing research and data on the unique history, challenges, industries, actors, available funding, and capital sources that shape how tribes and Native actors successfully participate in community economic development. This report examined existing literature that summarized the history and current state of community economic development in Native lands in the United States. When considering community economic development in Indian Country, the report finds that opportunities exist for enhancement. The need for improved data underlies many of the existing limitations. In addition, the need to understand and respect cultural values was found to be essential moving forward.
