Abstract
The interplay between economists and indigenous institutions is increasingly recognized as crucial for fostering sustainable development and equitable growth. This paper explores the roles that economists can play in supporting and enhancing the capacity of indigenous institutions. It examines how economic expertise can contribute to the preservation and advancement of indigenous knowledge systems, governance structures, and community-driven development initiatives. Through case studies and theoretical analysis, the paper highlights the potential impacts of collaborative approaches, addressing both opportunities and challenges. The findings underscore the importance of integrating economic perspectives with indigenous practices to achieve more inclusive and effective policy outcomes.
