Our Vision: Economic Development Week May 6 - 11, 2019 What is Economic Development Week? It's a North America-wide celebration where you have the opportunity to create awareness of the economic development programs in your own communities.
Create some buzz about your Ec. Dev Week celebration: @edaalberta @iedctweets #EDW2019 #EconDevWeek #QualityOfLife Last year, EDA joined economic development organizations from across the country to create a website and to produce a short video that demonstrates the importance of economic development to the fabric of a community: www.economicdevelopmentmatters.com Take a look and feel free to use the information and the video in your own work to get the word out about the importance of economic development. The video is available in both official languages plus there is an Indigenous version. Check it out!
