Economic Development and the Cooperative Approach

In two weeks MNL will be hosting another Economic Development workshop in its series around the province under the Local Action for Developing Regions(LADR) program.

LADR WORKSHOP, ST. ANTHONY AUGUST 21 & 22
MNL’s LADR Economic Development Workshops are more popular than ever! They bring business leaders to a discussion with municipal leaders on critical economic development issues all over the province. The results have been beyond our expectations. The last session in St. John’s attracted over 70 participants. On August 21-22 we will bring LADR to St. Anthony.

This will be a great opportunity for municipal leaders from the Great Northern Peninsula to discuss the critical economic issues facing their communities and how they can play a meaningful role in addressing them. Of course we encourage participation from across the province and look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at this exciting event. Space is limited, Call 1-800-440-6536 today to register


One of the unique aspects of the LADR workshops is that they are designed around the specific issues of the host region while still delivering general information that is broadly applicable. The presentations usually include the areas of various natural resources, tourism, funding and support programs and of course regional and/or municipal cooperation on economic development. There are growing examples of cooperation on the economic development front and the CCRC will be focusing on some of these examples at the St. Anthony workshop.

Registration is not costly and space can fill up quickly so call now to secure your spot 1-800-440-6536.
