Find resources to ensure that data collection and analysis, as well as management and sharing, are aligned with the goals of ongoing community engagement, accountability, and collaboration.
The values of "Indigenous data sovereignty" are commonly cited in research papers and other sources, but the methods by which data sovereignty can be ensured are rarely articulated. As new resources are found, we will add them here.
The BREB application will ask you to articulate how the research will uphold the principles of data sovereignty (what steps are the researchers taking to ensure the collection, analysis and sharing of research results will uphold the principles). Your methods will need to vary depending on the research context, discipline and communities with whom research takes place.
When it comes time to close your ethics application, you will also be asked to confirm how knowledge sharing, etc. has been or will be implemented. See the study closure coversheet for details.
