Conversations with the Fed: A Decade of Economic Research and Data Innovation in Indian Country

In honor of the 10th anniversary of the Center for Indian Country Development (CICD), join a conversation with CICD Director Casey Lozar as he provides an overview of economic research and data advancements in Indian Country, and shares perspectives on the role of research in advancing tribal economic prosperity. Casey will share CICD data resources and discuss initiatives that support CICD’s mission, which is to advance the economic self-determination and prosperity of Native nations and Indigenous communities through actionable data and research that inform public policy discussions. One major data initiative, the Survey of Native Nations, aims to advance the public finance data available for Indian Country and is now open to all tribes across the country that are interested in participating. Casey will also take questions from event attendees. 

As a research and policy institute headquartered at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, CICD supports the Minneapolis Fed’s mission to serve the public by pursuing a growing economy that works for all of us. CICD is grounded in the Federal Reserve System’s community development function, which has responsibility to help improve economic outcomes in low- and moderate-income communities.
