21 Nov 2024 | Aboriginal Data Sovereignty
During this presentation, we delved into the critical and emerging concepts of Indigenous Data Sovereignty (IDS) and Indigenous Data Governance, particularly in the context of the proposed Privacy Responsibility and Information Sharing (PRIS) legislation.
As we navigate through the intricacies of what this means, we examined how it aims to empower Indigenous communities by recognising their inherent right to control, access, and manage data that pertains to their people, territories, and cultures.
Our exploration highlighted the significance of such legislation in what things to consider and provide an overview of an Indigenous Data Framework.
IDS: Understanding and Preparing
The session addressed the emerging challenges in shaping and managing Indigenous Data Governance by:
- building understanding of what Indigenous Data Sovereignty is;
- exploring the impact IDS will have on public sector organisations; and
- sharing learnings about integrating IDS into operations and mainstream data management.
