class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an organization that transcends geographic and national boundaries, Local Contexts acknowledges that all of the lands and waters where we live and work are Indigenous Homelands. We recognize the ongoing significance of these lands and waters for Indigenous Peoples in the past, present, and future.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Local Contexts is committed to Indigenous sovereignty and ethical data governance; we believe that naming and addressing the violence of settler-colonialism and its ongoing effects is central to the work that we do. The legacy of settler-colonialism has manifested in the structural exclusion and erasure of Indigenous people within institutions that steward collections of Indigenous heritage and data. The (mis)information or absence of information within these institutions and their systems continues to pose enduring challenges that adversely affect Indigenous communities.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have responsibilities and obligations to support Indigenous peoples, communities, and organizations. In our efforts to overcome the legacies of settler-colonialism, Local Contexts was developed to create effective and recognized pathways for implementing and maintaining Indigenous data rights and facilitate ethical relationships and enable collaboration with stewards of Indigenous collections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We ask you to acknowledge these truths and join us in our commitment to acting as respectful guests within the homelands in which we live and work.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To learn more about Indigenous homelands visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.native-land.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.native-land.ca<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"section section pt-2 pb-2 aligncenter section--has-background\" style=\"background-color: #eaf4f0;\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"content\">\n      <div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">News and Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"dps-listing-content columns-4 columns-tablet-2 columns-mobile-1\"><div class=\"listing-item\"><div class=\"thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Still-from-Awas\u0259wehl\u03b1w\u0259\u0301l\u0259tin\u03b1-wik\u0259w\u03b1mok.png\" alt=\"Detail of black and white beadwork on red cloth by Jennifer Neptune.\"> <span class=\"category-display\"><span class=\"category-display-label\"><\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/de\/category\/blog\/resources\/\">Resources<\/a><\/span><\/div><h3 class=\"text-2xl\"><a class=\"title\" href=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/de\/new-guidance-for-indigenous-collections-and-data\/\">New Guidance for Indigenous Collections and Data<\/a><\/h3><span class=\"text-sm uppercase mb-2\"><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-calendar-alt text-terniary-100\"><\/span> <span class=\"date\">Sep. 9, 2026<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"excerpt\">Guidance for Indigenous Collections and Indigenous Data: Recommendations from Creative Commons and Local Contexts is a new resource for cultural institution staff and cultural heritage&hellip; <span class=\"excerpt-more\"> &hellip;<\/span><\/span><div class=\"flex justify-center buttons flex-grow items-end mt-4\">\n\t\t<div class=\"fake-flex-gap-4\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/de\/new-guidance-for-indigenous-collections-and-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"btn link-reset button alignnone btn-terniary btn-default btn-default\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"btn-content \" tabindex=\"-1\">Read More<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div><\/div><div class=\"listing-item\"><div class=\"thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Data-Dos-and-Donts-cover-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Cover of Data Do\u2019s and Don\u2019ts: A Primer on Indigenous Data Sovereignty with the NSF CBIKS logo and an illustration of a hand holding seeds.\"> <span class=\"category-display\"><span class=\"category-display-label\"><\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/de\/category\/blog\/resources\/\">Resources<\/a><\/span><\/div><h3 class=\"text-2xl\"><a class=\"title\" href=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/de\/data-dos-and-donts-a-primer-on-indigenous-data-sovereignty\/\">Data Do\u2019s and Don\u2019ts: A Primer on Indigenous Data Sovereignty<\/a><\/h3><span class=\"text-sm uppercase mb-2\"><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-calendar-alt text-terniary-100\"><\/span> <span class=\"date\">Juli 31, 2026<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"excerpt\">Data Do\u2019s and Don\u2019ts: A Primer on Indigenous Data Sovereignty is a new guidebook written by Dr. Jane Anderson, Co-Founder and Council Vice Chair of&hellip; <span class=\"excerpt-more\"> &hellip;<\/span><\/span><div class=\"flex justify-center buttons flex-grow items-end mt-4\">\n\t\t<div class=\"fake-flex-gap-4\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/de\/data-dos-and-donts-a-primer-on-indigenous-data-sovereignty\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"btn link-reset button alignnone btn-terniary btn-default btn-default\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"btn-content \" tabindex=\"-1\">Read More<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div><\/div><div class=\"listing-item\"><div class=\"thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/localcontexts.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SotWPF-report-cover-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\u201cRoyal Botanic Gardens Kew State of the World\u2019s Plants and Fungi 2026.\u201d Report cover.
