Presented By: Dr. Jennifer Walker, Associate Professor, Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence & Impact at McMaster University.

The CLSA platform aims to support research that benefits all people living in Canada. The CLSA is committed to ensuring that all research involving First Nations, Métis and Inuit Peoples is conducted in a manner that respects Indigenous data governance principles and rights, including researcher responsibilities to uphold those same principles and rights in their research activities. 
The next CLSA webinar, presented by Dr. Jennifer Walker, aims to provide prospective applicants to the CLSA with information about the CLSA's expectations and guidelines on their requests to access and use of Indigenous-identified data collected by the CLSA. Join us on Wednesday, March 22 at 1 PM.
