\n Economic development requires access to accurate information. Unfortuna
tely\, Indian country generally lacks accurate information on Indian popula
tions\, including labor force\, economic\, land use/ownership\, and financi
al data.
\n This workshop\, organized by the Office of Policy Analy sis at the U.S. Department of the Interior\, was developed for a tribal aud ience. The workshop provides tribes and outside experts a chance to identif y data needed for Indian economic development and options to address data g aps.
\n\n The workshop includes panel discussions on four key topics: labor and population data\; Indian business data\; access to capital\; and community development data. A question-and-answer session follows each pan el. \;
