About Stacey Jessiman
Working at leading firms in Canada, the US and France during the past 25 years, Stacey has helped global and local companies, Indigenous communities and their business groups, and governments and entrepreneurs achieve intelligent solutions in business, economic development, dispute resolution, cultural and intellectual property, and Aboriginal and Indigenous law matters.
Stacey helps clients across Canada create corporate structures, policies and commercial agreements that fit their specific business and community needs, foster productive business relationships, and advance economic reconciliation. As part of that work, she assists clients with carefully analysing and optimizing management practices to support sustainable economic development. She also assists clients with crafting laws, policies, treaty provisions and agreements governing the protection of cultural and intellectual property and the return of art and cultural material.
Stacey has created and taught courses at Stanford University that examine issues surrounding illicit trade and protection of art and Indigenous cultural heritage, including tribal, domestic and international legal and ethical frameworks such as the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). Her courses bring into the classroom the voices and perspectives of renowned Indigenous and museum experts from around the world. Her research and teaching have contributed to her broad understanding of issues arising in repatriation/ restitution matters and the development of a specific process based on Relationship Building for resolving Indigenous cultural heritage disputes.
