Developing an Indigenous Data Sovereignty Agreement User Guide

About the project:

The project will develop a user guide to support ethical, respectful, and effective research and data sharing partnerships between Indigenous communities and external partners. It will collate and review existing Indigenous data sharing agreements to identify shared principles and best practices, with attention to data sovereignty, governance, consent, cultural protocols, and community priorities. Based on this review, the guide will outline practical steps, key questions, and sample components to help partners create transparent, accountable, and locally responsive agreements.
