What is a REDA?
Alberta SouthWest is one of nine Regional Economic Development Alliances (REDAs) established in Alberta in the early 2000’s, creating a “network of networks".
This province-wide initiative received the “Premier’s Award of Excellence” in 2004.
Now aligned with the Department of Alberta Jobs, Economy, Trade, and Immigration, the REDAs are an effective mechanism to support municipal collaboration as well as cross-ministry information-sharing and implementation of provincial programs.
Success for one is success for all.
