WHO WE ARE

Collaborators

NNI forms collaborative relationships with Native nations and organizations to advance Native nation building processes, analyze policy options, promote strategic thinking, and develop solutions to difficult governance and development problems. Staff and researchers from NNI work with individuals at these organizations to plan conferences and workshops, coordinate research efforts and share knowledge, and carry out many other projects. The organizations that NNI has current partnerships with include:

Harvard Project on American Indian Economic Development (Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass.). Conducts research, advisory services, and executive education, with the goal of understanding the conditions under which self-determined development is achieved among American Indian nations.
 
Morris K. Udall Foundation (Tucson, Ariz.). Committed to teaching a new generation of Americans to preserve and protect their national heritage through studies in the environment, Native American health and tribal policy, and effective public policy conflict resolution.
