One Bowl, an Indigenous-governed solution for housing, manufacturing, and workforce development, sought to strengthen its presence in Ottawa and establish itself as a national-scale initiative.
To do this, One Bowl needed to build foundational legitimacy, navigate complex multi-departmental funding environments, and establish relationships across several federal and provincial channels. Following the change in federal government in mid-2025, the organization also faced the challenge of rapidly rebuilding political relationships and re-aligning its narrative with new mandate priorities.
Our strategy positioned One Bowl as a nation-building project — not a funding applicant — grounded in Indigenous ownership and capable of addressing remote housing shortages, skilled trades development, and regional economic growth at the same time.
