Local Contexts is a platform that delivers the Traditional Knowledge and Biocultural Labels. The Labels are human and machine readable digital tags developed to refocus the relationships between people, place and data. Created as a response to the failure of intellectual property law to properly address Indigenous cultural and intellectual property interests, especially in contexts of research, collection and preservation, the Labels function as a practical digital tool supporting community aspirations for Indigenous data sovereignty.
PRICING
The Indigenous Mapping Collective is FREE for all Indigenous Nations, organizations, and peoples globally. Our top priority is to ensure Indigenous peoples have access to the tools and knowledge to be able to build capacity with mapping technologies. We also offer paid memberships which allows us to build more content, reach out to new partners, and build capacity for even more people.
