The ESIP cluster “Sustainable Data Management” promotes mechanisms for repositories to collaborate to preserve their holdings (https://wiki.esipfed.org/Sustainable_Data_Management). Their current project is to produce recommendations for member repositories on implementing guidance principles within frameworks like FAIR (https://doi.org/10.1038/sdata.2016.18) and TRUST (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-020-0486-7). We are also including a third framework: the CARE principles for indigenous data governance (http://doi.org/10.5334/dsj-2020-043), where CARE stands for Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, and Ethics. These principles extend data management concerns to be more people- and purpose-oriented, and to respect indigenous sovereignty. As stated in the Data Science Journal paper, “The ‘CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance’ empower Indigenous Peoples by shifting the focus from regulated consultation to value-based relationships that position data approaches within Indigenous cultures and knowledge systems to the benefit of Indigenous Peoples”. This session will present the cluster’s recent examination of the CARE principles, how these are related to repository activities, and extend FAIR and TRUST. Introductory material on CARE and the cluster’s work will be presented, followed by discussion.
