The FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) are now the recognised guidelines for dealing with research data and focus on technical and organisational aspects such as the annotation of metadata, the publication and registration of DOIs and the granting of licences to ensure that data can be reused as freely as possible. The goals are to ensure that data is as freely available and freely exchanged as possible.
The CARE principles (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, Ethics) on the other hand, stand for the appropriate handling of data concerning indigenous communities and are intended to complement the FAIR principles. In contrast to FAIR, CARE does not focus on facilitating the exchange of data, but on safeguarding the interests of indigenous communities, fair participation in the value chain and the return of control over data such as images and artefacts.
- Collective Benefit aims to use data from indigenous communities in a way that benefits them in public decision-making processes, self-determination and the equitable realisation of generated value.
- Authority to Control aims to recognise and protect the rights of indigenous communities to their data. This ranges from the collection and use of data in the context of self-determination to the active control of access to data of indigenous origin.
- Responsibility is aimed at those who work with data of indigenous origin. They must demonstrate how they handle this data and what benefits it brings to the indigenous community. The use of indigenous data requires ensuring that the data is handled with respect and dignity. At the same time, the data literacy of indigenous communities should be developed to such an extent that they can create data independently and in accordance with their values.
- TheEthicsaspect stipulates that the rights of indigenous communities and their well-being are safeguarded. This includes avoiding harm through the use of data, dealing fairly with the imbalance of power and resources and taking future data use into account.
The presentation touches on questions of research ethics and introduces the CARE principles and their practical implementation. The relevance of CARE for research data beyond data of indigenous origin will be outlined.
