DESCRIPTION:*gloknos Annual Lecture Series – Tahu Kukutai (University of
  Waikato) – 2 June 2021 in the UK/Europe or 3 June 2021 in New Zealand |
  22:00 - 23:30 (UK time)*\n\n*Abstract:*\nData is the 21st century’s mos
 t valuable resource. Aotearoa New Zealand is a world leader in linking adm
 inistrative data\, and an early adopter of data-driven policy-making but h
 as yet to develop innovative models of data governance and ethics\, value 
 creation and benefit-sharing. Many of the assumptions underpinning Aotearo
 a NZ’s data ecosystems rest on Anglo-European legal concepts (e.g. indiv
 idual privacy\, consent and ownership) which translate poorly into the big
  and open data environment. What is needed is a radically different way of
  conceptualising rights that relate to massive quantities of data.\n\nIndi
 genous data sovereignty (IDSov) marks an important departure from current 
 theory and practice. At the heart of IDSov is the inherent rights of Indig
 enous Peoples and nations to control the collection\, ownership\, and appl
 ication of data about their people\, territories\, lifeways and natural re
 sources. This talk provides an overview of recent developments in IDSov wi
 th a specific focus on the research and activism of domestic IDSov network
 s and the Global Indigenous Data Alliance (GIDA).\n\n*Speaker:*\nTahu Kuku
