Beyond Connectivity: How Broadband Can Empower Native Nations and Build Stronger Communities
On this premier broadcast of Connected Nation, host Jessica Denson speaks with tribal economic development leader Brandon Dinsmore (Founder & Executive Director of NDN Development Group) about creating sustainable opportunity for Native nations and underserved communities.
“Anything that has to do with infrastructure on tribal lands—if there is a way possible, a tribe should own that infrastructure, be able to operate it, maintain it, and staff the construction with their own people. The whole motivation behind NDN Development Group was creating something that is not extractive to work with the tribes, empowering tribal members toward better financial prosperity, and tying workforce development directly to economic sovereignty.”
