The objective of the Devonshire Initiative (DI) is to improve social and community development outcomes in the context of natural resource development.

 

We believe that cross-sector collaboration is an important element of reaching this objective. The DI creates a constructive space where stakeholders can discuss complex problems, identify common opportunities, and develop innovative on-the-ground collaboration.

 

The DI does not represent any single stakeholder group or advocate one single viewpoint. The DI is not a platform for industry, a voice of the development community, a lobby group or a tool of the government. The DI does not represent a partnership between participants. Participants have their own independent views on natural resource development and community development issues and represent a wide spectrum of opinions.
