Respecting and Upholding First Nations Data Sovereignty

Commissioner Kosseim and Jonathan Dewar will continue their conversation from the closing session at IAPP Canada Privacy Symposium 2022. They will further discuss how respecting data sovereignty of First Nations peoples can help preserve their cultures and traditions, and provide them the necessary insights to shape their future.

What you will learn:

• How First Nations peoples hold rights to data sovereignty.

• How the Canadian privacy regime is focused on individual privacy as opposed to collective rights.

• What can we learn from First Nations concepts of privacy and where do we go from here.
