Introduction to Indigenous Data Sovereignty
Introduction to Indigenous Data Sovereignty In-Person / Online
Learn more about Indigenous Data Sovereignty (IDSov), which expresses a legitimate right of Indigenous Peoples to control the access, the collection, ownership, application and governance of their own data or knowledge and/or information that derives from unique cultural histories, expressions, practices, and contexts. Attendees will be introduced to foundational concepts and theories of Data Sovereignty and to the global human rights agreements (such as the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples) and broad and regional frameworks (such as the CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance and the OCAP Principles) that support the foundations of IDSov. Attendees will reflect on what constitutes Indigenous Data, what research might be affected by IDSov principles, and the potential pathways for researchers and data stewards to work with and in support of Indigenous communities, Nations, and individuals to braid Indigenous knowledges and approaches to data practices and policies into data management throughout the research process.
