Dr. Stephany RunningHawk Johnson to discuss Indigenous Knowledge and RI
Stephany will be joining us on the panel for our first plenary session on Indigenous Knowledge.
Dr. Stephany RunningHawk Johnson (Oglala Lakota) is the Executive Director of Local Contexts. She collaborates with Indigenous communities, bringing skills and knowledge of decolonizing and Indigenizing work. Stephany translates for institutions how and why protecting Indigenous data sovereignty is crucial, giving them ways to meet their obligations through the Local Contexts’ Labels and Notices.
We are keen to draw on her wealth of experiences and insights in discussing the integration of research with Indigenous knowledge.

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the lands and waters throughout Australia, and pay respect to the Elders past, present and emerging. We recognise the importance of connection to culture, land, kinship and community to the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander families. We acknowledge the cultural practices and traditions still carried out today and being passed down to future generations.
