Reconciliation and Tech: Amplifying Indigenous Voices Through Ethical Nonprofit Tech Practices!
In an age of growing concern over AI misuse, data breaches, and digital surveillance, Indigenous approaches to technology point to a powerful way forward.
Join us to learn from our guests at Animikii, a leading Indigenous-owned technology company as they share their insights and expertise with us. We’ll be exploring ethical and decolonial approaches to technology all the way from its uses to its governance.
About the Webinar:
Our conversation will begin with an exploration of the cornerstones of ethical engagement with Indigenous communities, in a segment called ‘Building Respectful Relationships with Indigenous Communities.’ Our guests from Animikii will share their unique insights and experiences on how to foster respectful relationships that honor Indigenous cultures, histories, and rights.
Next, we’ll introduce you to the practice of ‘Indigenous Data Sovereignty.’ This is an opportunity to understand the rights of Indigenous communities in controlling the collection, use, and management of their own data. Animikii’s experts will delve into the implications of data sovereignty in the context of Indigenous communities and discuss ways to uphold these rights at your organization.
We’ll close the webinar with reflection from the Animikii team on ‘Pathfinding’, a culturally-informed approach to software development. Animikii team members will provide first-hand insights into the process of developing software that not only addresses functionality but also respects and promotes Indigenous cultural values. Along the way, they’ll offer valuable lessons for anyone looking to practice meaningful community engagement and co-creation in their work.
