First Nations Principles of Ownership, Control, Access and Possession (OCAP®) Presentation – Feb. 15, 2024

Session Description

February 15 2024 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

The First Nations Principles of Ownership, Control, Access, and Possession – more commonly known as OCAP® – assert that First Nations have control over data collection processes, and that they own and control how this information can be used.

This presentation, led by Leslie Macgregor, introduces participants to First Nations Indigenous Governance Centre (FNIGC), the First Nations principles of OCAP® and First Nations data sovereignty. Over the course of approximately one hour, participants will learn about OCAP® and have the opportunity to ask questions in a Q & A period at the end of the presentation.
