“…In this sense, Berkes and Adhikari found that the objective of indigenous ventures is often related to community-based development [67]. Similarly, Walters and Takamura suggest that business strategies within indigenous communities are based on the combination of community, spirituality, sustainability, and entrepreneurship [84]. In this sense, the three strategies related to this SDG (investments in the social, economic, and environmental dimensions; stakeholder engagement; and promoting new ventures that satisfy previously unattended needs) have contributed to safeguarding ancient ecosystems that are the base of their traditional way of life.…”

Building Sustainable Rural Communities through Indigenous Social Enterprises: A Humanistic Approach

This article follows a humanistic management approach to analyze how indigenous social enterprises contribute to building sustainable rural communities. To this end, I first explore the process of how these entities were formed and developed the necessary capabilities to generate such outcomes. Then, I examine the strategies indigenous social enterprises create to engage in value creation activities with the community and their main outcomes. Such outcomes are finally classified by the problems they addressed according to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), since one of the gaps in the literature indicates a lack of studies that relate specific SDGs with the outcomes of social enterprises in developing countries. This article follows a qualitative approach, a case study research strategy, and uses semi-structured interviews as the main data collection instrument. Evidence from four cases of indigenous social enterprises in Latin America suggests that these entities originate as a result of a major crisis that affects the dignity of the individuals and compromises the socio-economic dynamics of the communities. Second, local leadership urges a response that takes the form of a social enterprise that follows local principles and governance and pursues dignity protection, sustainability, and cultural reaffirmation. As a result, the communities have increased their levels of well-being and sustainability, linked to SDGs such as good health, decent work, reduced inequalities, public infrastructure, sustainable communities, and partnerships for the goals. This article also sheds light on how a humanistic management approach can contribute to a better understanding of the dynamics of social enterprises, as these humanistic principles and practices seem to be naturally promoted by social entrepreneurs.

“…A Māori perspective of absorptive capacity has been outlined generically in previous studies . Here, we more fully articulate our theory, which we acknowledge is a 'translation' of innovation concepts, and that other approaches start from a Māori or Indigenous worldview (see, for example Walters and Takamura 2015;Kawharu et al 2017). Notwithstanding this, given our exploratory approach in these novel science areas, translation has been a helpful starting place.…”

This paper explores what it takes to develop a common language and shared sense of purpose between Māori and the high-tech science sector. Robotics and automation, 3-D printing, sensors, and digital technologies are shaping New Zealand's economy in fundamental ways. If, as envisioned under New Zealand's Vision Mātauranga policy, Māori contribution to economic growth through distinctive Indigenous innovation is to be recognised and valued, then how this happens in these frontier science domains requires investigation. Findings are presented from the first phase of a longitudinal study of one National Science Challenge: Science for Technological Innovation (SfTI)-Kia Kotahi Mai, Te Ao Pūtaiao me te Ao Hangarau. Collecting a variety of data from science, business and Māori participants, the findings suggest that while there is enabling macro policy, organisational and science team human and relational capacities require recalibrating. The authors outline a model of how this can be done through a focus on mātauranga (knowledge), tikanga (practice) and kaupapa (focus areas) and how SfTI is reshaping its organisational practice to align to this model. The research also identifies the important role of the science intermediary as crucial to this alignment within teams.

The creative economy is currently considered as one of the most rapidly growing industries of the world economy today. The creative economy is a new economy that intensifies technology, information, and creativity by relying on the idea and knowledge of its human resources as the main factor in its economic activities. So, the creative economy relies on creativity, knowledge, and information possessed by human resources as the main actor. Human creativity and innovation are the key drivers of these industries at both individual and group levels and have become the true wealth of nations in the 21st century (UNESCO and UNDP, 2013, p.15). Many scholars study creative economy and come with their concepts of "creative industries"
