INDIGENOUS DATA PROTOCOLS WITH KAYLA LAR-SON

In this talk we will explore the topic of Indigenous data sovereignty, Indigenous data protocols and what they mean for practitioners working with Indigenous data. We will also begin to discover real applications of tools that support Indigenous data sovereignty, and learn how we can begin to advocate for more ethical data practices.
