This webinar focused on recent updates to the Local Contexts Hub, including the launch of the Membership, Subscription, and Integration Partner programs. 

The Local Contexts team and Council members walked through these updates, reviewed how these changes might affect you, and fielded questions and feedback.

About

Local Contexts is focused on practically supporting the authority and local power of Indigenous communities in sharing and managing their intellectual and cultural property in cultural heritage, biological, and genetic resources. 

The Local Contexts Hub is an innovative and unique Indigenous Data Sovereignty technology platform that creates a relational connection between Indigenous and local communities, researchers, and institutions around the world with the Local Contexts Labels and Notices.

The Member (communities), Subscriber (institutions and researchers), and Integration Partner (platforms and databases) programs were developed to support Local Contexts’ mission, governance, and sustainability. 

Questions about these programs? See our Hub agreements page and the recently updated section in the FAQ.
