Data Do’s and Don’ts: A Primer on Indigenous Data Sovereignty is a new guidebook written by Dr. Jane Anderson, Co-Founder and Council Vice Chair of Local Contexts, and Vanessa Smith, JD/MBA Candidate at UCLA.

This is a useful tool for researchers across disciplines, and emerges from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Center for Braiding Indigenous Knowledges and Science (CBIKS). This is an approachable entry point to Indigenous Data Sovereignty for researchers, with beautiful design and illustrations by dpict.

Download the guide from the CBIKS website.
