Case Studies that can be used in the course to draw a Leaky Bucket<br />

i. Wikwemikong First Nation, Canada<br />

(Source: Coady Institute)<br />

Note: “First Nation” is a term used to describe the first inhabitants <strong>of</strong> Canada. They are Canada’s<br />

Aboriginal or Indigenous people who were here before the European settlers.<br />

Instructions<br />

Print copies <strong>of</strong> the case study provided below and hand out to participants. This case study is also<br />

provided n the <strong>Training</strong> Materials Guide. Once they have read the case study, ask them to undertake<br />

the following tasks in groups <strong>of</strong> 4:<br />

• From the case study compile a brief inventory <strong>of</strong> the community's assets (do this any way you like).<br />

• Draw a leaky bucket diagram making sure to indicate the main economic flows:<br />

a) into the community<br />

b) out <strong>of</strong> the community<br />

c) within the community<br />

(Hint: read over the community description and make a list <strong>of</strong> the relevant economic data first).<br />

• What economic opportunities can you identify to increase incomes or decrease expenditures<br />

and what assets might be mobilized for community economic development?<br />

Once completed, ask each group to present their “Leaky Buckets” to the rest <strong>of</strong> the participants and the<br />

economic opportunities they came up with. Compare the participants’ presentations with what actually<br />

happened. The actual Leaky Bucket and opportunities generated by this community are provided below<br />

and in the <strong>Training</strong> Materials Guide.<br />
