Description
In Australia, the interest in Indigenous Data Sovereignty (IDSov) has increased over the past decade. There are now emerging competing interests between the state as holders of vast Indigenous data assets and how these data are governed and Indigenous communities to drive their agenda on Indigenous data priorities including data sharing from the state to communities and state actors facilitating access to Indigenous data for Indigenous communities.
This presentation details pedagogical developments by the Maiam nayri Wingara (MnW) Indigenous Data Sovereignty collective on their Foundations of IDSov and IDGov short course to guide the operationalisation of IDSov principles. We will discuss the Foundations course and how it socialises the concepts of IDSov and IDGov, including how the content aligns with the global philosophy of IDSov as an Indigenous-led movement. Additionally, we will share lessons learned thus far relating to the delivery of the training modules that make up the course.
We conclude by sharing potential new additions to the Maiam nayri Wingara course offerings and seeking additional suggestions for future training.
