Perspectives on Māori Data in a Health Data Ecosystem

Interest in Māori data sovereignty and the need for a process for Māori data governance are increasingly being recognised as an essential need in agency, health, and community collectives. This presentation will provide an introduction and perspectives on Māori views of data and the state of key Māori data work streams and governance. The impact of a broadly connected health data ecosystem will also be reviewed, and the challenges facing organisations in relation to their Te Tiriti o Waitangi responsibilities and opportunities for authentic Māori partnerships will also be discussed.  This presentation will also go through an example of the application of Māori Data Sovereignty in a project and how Māori data governance worked.  The all-important lessons learnt, and next steps will also be covered.
