Tribes innovate economic data practices based on tribal values | Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis As part of the Center for Indian Country Development’s tenth-anniversary series, we highlight several tribes’ approaches to leveraging economic data to benefit their communities

Please read this article on #IDSov featuring one of our great colleagues, Mari Hulbutta, of the Chickasaw Nation. "While gaps remain, these data stories illustrate new ways tribes are leveraging data, on their own terms, o serve their communities." www.minneapolisfed.org/article/2025...

(@ncig2013) ANU NCIG was proud to join the CSIRO NRCA Seminar Series on 24 June. A/Prof @hardipp.bsky.social shared insights on equity in genomics, Indigenous leadership, and data sovereignty. Thanks to CSIRO, partners, and all who attended.
