Navigating Indigenous Data Sovereignty and Privacy Law

Are you working with First Nations data or supporting First Nations communities? This session is designed to give you the tools, knowledge, and confidence to do it the right way.

We will unpack:

  • Indigenous Data Sovereignty (IDSov): What Indigenous Data is and why it matters?

  • Privacy Laws in Practice: Explore the legal framework and the challenges it creates, and discover how to uphold Free, Prior and Informed Consent.

  • Best Practice in Action: Practical tips for ensuring your work with Indigenous Data aligns with cultural protocols and empowers communities.

This presentation will leave you with a deeper understanding of why IDSov is essential, and with actionable steps to embed best practice into your work.

 

Who should attend?

  • First Nations organisations

  • Practitioners, researchers, and policymakers working with First Nations communities

  • Anyone committed to ethical, respectful, and culturally safe data practices

Join us to strengthen your approach and ensure your work supports the rights of First Nations peoples.
