Data Protection
KEEPING OUR STORIES SAFE
In Mi’kma’ki, knowledge isn’t owned—it’s carried, cared for, and passed down. That’s how we protect our data: with respect, intention, and love.
Sovereignty doesn’t end when data is collected. It continues in how we store it, protect it, and decide who can use it. Data protection is part of our responsibility to our ancestors, our communities, and our future generations.
We protect Mi’kmaw data with care, guided by the principles of OCAP®, community trust, and Mi’kmaw governance.
