The Community Economic Development
approach takes a broad-based look at
future needs and opportunities within
local communities. In all activities and
services they undertake, CFDCs are
guided by CED principles. Not just
about attracting big business to the
area, CED principles mean working to
assist leaders in small communities in
enhancing the prosperity in the region
through projects in a variety of
sectors, as wide-ranging as tourism
products and marketing, natural resource
restoration, telecommunications service
enhancement and new industry
development.
Summarized, LAMBAC's mandate is to
assist existing projects and
opportunities to succeed wherever they
can be of benefit to the local economy.
