Feb. 6, 2023
Indigenous Tourism Ontario and the Tourism Innovation Lab have partnered to present another round of the Indigenous Tourism Skode Program in Ontario. The deadline to apply for the $20,000 grand prize is Feb. 13, 2023.
Skode (pronounced shkoh-deh) means fire in Anishinaabemowin, and organizers want applicants “to share the fire within your heart” while helping to light a fire that will accelerate your tourism business plans.
As for what qualifies to apply, organizers explained that “Indigenous tourism entrepreneurs, businesses, community groups and non-profits are encouraged to bring forward new tourism ideas and experiences that authentically represent, celebrate and promote Indigenous culture, heritage, language, cuisine and communities in Ontario.”
