Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Nevada's American Indian and Alaska Native Doctoral Candidates in Economics Research ## Capacity Building for Tribal Economies ## Measuring Success in Economic Development Research for Native Communities in Nevada # Priority Outcomes for Nevada's American Indian and Alaska Native Doctoral Candidates in Economics Research The Fellowship to American Indian and Alaska Native Doctoral Candidates for Economics, funded by the Banking Institution, aims to support research in economic and economic development focusing on or influencing Native Communities. For Nevada, a state with a significant American Indian population and diverse tribal economies, this grant presents an opportunity to drive meaningful research outcomes. The Nevada Governor's Office of Native American Affairs and the Nevada Indian Commission are key state agencies that may be relevant to this grant type, as they work to improve the lives of Native Americans in the state. Nevada's unique demographic feature is its large Native American population, with 26 federally recognized tribes, including the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe and the Walker River Paiute Tribe. The state's frontier counties and rural areas also present distinct challenges for economic development. When evaluating priority outcomes for this grant in Nevada, several key areas emerge. Firstly, research should focus on addressing the economic disparities faced by Native American communities in the state. According to the American Community Survey, the median household income for Native Americans in Nevada is significantly lower than that of the overall population. Research that sheds light on the root causes of these disparities and identifies potential solutions is crucial. Secondly, the grant should prioritize research that supports the development of tribal economies. Many Native American tribes in Nevada are engaged in gaming, tourism, and other industries, and research that helps these tribes diversify their economies and build sustainable revenue streams is essential. The Nevada Native American Cultural Preservation and Promotion initiative is an example of a program that promotes the preservation and promotion of Native American culture, which can, in turn, support economic development. In terms of specific outcomes, the grant should prioritize research that leads to improved economic opportunities for Native Americans in Nevada. This could include studies on entrepreneurship, workforce development, and infrastructure development. Additionally, research that evaluates the effectiveness of existing economic development programs and policies in Native American communities is also critical. To measure the success of this grant, the Banking Institution should track the number of research projects completed, the number of doctoral candidates supported, and the impact of the research on policy and practice in Native American communities. The institution should also assess the extent to which the research contributes to the development of tribal economies and improves economic opportunities for Native Americans in Nevada. By focusing on these priority outcomes, the Fellowship to American Indian and Alaska Native Doctoral Candidates for Economics can drive meaningful research outcomes in Nevada and contribute to the state's economic development. Las Vegas grants and Nevada small business grants can be an essential part of the state's economic development strategy. The Nevada Grant Lab is another resource that can support research and innovation in the state. For individuals seeking free grants in Las Vegas, there are various resources available, including business grants in Nevada and Nevada grants for individuals. Non-profit organizations in Nevada can also benefit from Nevada grants for non-profit organizations, such as those offered by the Nevada Arts Council.
