Responsible Research and Engagement Practices for Indigenous Data Governance in Earth Science Institutions

该项目的目标是确定大型开放数据研究项目的道德实践。它将有助于为土著学者和社区成员、数据管理人员和社会科学家建立网络，以制定数据库的流程和准则，确保以符合利益攸关方道德的方式收集、存储和传播数据。作为试点工作，该项目将使科学家和社区成员参与使用国家生态观测网络（氖）数据库中储存的数据。研究人员、社区成员、决策者和教育工作者将对该项目的成果感兴趣。该项目的目标是制定适用于地球科学数据存储库的流程和指南，并解决数据和标本生命周期（即收集，存储，出版，引用，再利用）每个阶段的土著数据主题。在这一孵化阶段，该项目将依靠工作组的互动，并利用参与性研究框架制定可广泛应用于地球科学研究和开放数据储存库的准则。在整个规划和实施过程中，该项目将与Rising Voices Network中的人员和机构建立联系，以建立参与者之间的强有力合作，其中包括土著学者，教育工作者和社区领袖以及大气，社会，生态，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的评估被认为值得支持。影响审查标准。

The goal of this project is to identify ethical practices for large open data research projects. It will contribute to creating networks for Indigenous scholars and community members, data managers and social scientists to develop processes and guidelines for databases that ensure data collection, storage, and dissemination are done in ethical ways for stakeholders. The project will engage scientists and community members working with data stored in the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) database as a pilot effort. The project’s outcomes will be of interest to researchers, community members, policy makers and educators. The goal of the project is to develop processes and guidelines that are applicable across Earth science data repositories and address Indigenous Data topics in each stage of the data and specimen lifecycle (i.e. collection, storage, publication, citation, re-use). In this incubation phase, the project will rely on working group interactions and use a participatory research framework to develop guidelines that can be applied broadly across Earth science research and open data repositories. Throughout planning and implementation, the project will connect to the people and institutions in the Rising Voices Network to build a robust collaboration of participants that includes Indigenous scholars, educators, and community leaders as well as atmospheric, social, ecological, and data scientists.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
