Regional Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) documents go through a comprehensive, robust update every five years. The Association of Village Council Presidents (AVCP) last conducted a full update in 2018. The Western Alaska Partnership has been involved in the YK Delta – CEDS Working Group since a summit of over 100 participants from across the region, along with various organizations, researchers and representatives, came together in 2019 to discuss Energy, Environment, Economy, and Education. The Western Alaska Partnership has aided in developing ideas and strategies to achieve the CEDS’ goals and will continue to participate in the subsistence working group: https://www.avcp.org/2018/08/02/the-yukon-kuskokwim-region-comprehensive-economic-development-strategy-2018-2023-is-now-available/
