I completed my online course this evening, and I am so brain dead that I can't even scroll my dash. No more words, only dissociation.
The course was about how First Nations in Canada can assert sovereignty over their data so it benefits their communities instead of being extracted. The time commitment listed on the website is underestimated, but I’m leaving with a framework I can use in my own work and on the data committees I serve on. It’s an expensive investment, but I still recommend the course if you work with research data. The artwork in the course is beautiful!
The Fundamentals of OCAP (ownership, control, access, possession) by the First Nations Information Governance Centre.
I'm happy to answer any questions.
