Supporting Indigenous Data Sovereignty means encouraging meaningful participation in design, and ownership and control of data that is collected, by the Peoples themselves when the data are about or from Indigenous Peoples. While the definition of "Indigenous Data" may be coherent world wide, different Sovereign entities and advocy groups articulate a need for "data governance", "data sovereignty", “data rights" and/or “co-design”.  Amidst global initiatives to promote "Indigenous Data Sovereignty", the ethical statistical practitioner needs reliable guidance. Practitioners in science, industry, and government contexts need to be ethical and attentive when working collecting, managing, and working with data from all sources. Moreover, instructors who are training the next generation of statistical and data science practitioners also need coherent guidance so they can teach and support ethical statistics and data science practice with all peoples' data. In this session, presenters will discuss the Decolonized Research Framework and the CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance, and the guidance for ethically engaging in data collection, analysis, management, and interpretation/communication will be considered from the perspectives of international frameworks and guidance on ethical practice. Presenters will consider alignment and gaps between principles and frameworks from Indigenous Peoples and ethical guidelines.
