    • About Us

    Akiing, the Anishinaabe word for “the land to which the people belong,” is a regional integrated community development initiative aimed at restoring a culturally based Anishinaabe economy focused on food, energy, and value-added production. Akiing works to restore health, wellbeing, and economic opportunities for Anishinaabe people in the Great Lakes region through the promotion of education and outreach on sustainable development, pilot projects and regional collaboration on economic development, cultural events, research and policy work for tribal nations. Many functions of Akiing are shared with our sister organization Anishinaabe Agriculture Institute (AAI). AAI seeks to restore food ways, rematriate seeds, and make a new economy; one based on local food, energy and fiber.
