SUMMARY:Communities Empowered by Data 101: Tools and Best Practices
DESCRIPTION:Community-led data practices empower and support community-led 
 grassroots actions and initiatives. Data are valuable and we need to work 
 together to take care of them\, from the initial planning stages of a 
 project to where it lives after the work is complete. In this 101-level 
 session\, we’ll introduce the Community Research Data Toolkit—a new 
 Pressbook filled with guidance and resources to support communities in 
 taking an active role in data management. Topics include using data 
 management plans as tools for building trust\, exploring options for 
 long-term community-held data\, and more. Following an interactive 
 overview\, we'll save some time to workshop challenges and possibilities 
 through a set of applicable case studies.\n\nParticipants will learn 
 to:\n\n\n	Summarize RDM best practices and what Data Management Plans and 
 Data Deposit look like in community-based research\n	Locate available 
 tools\, training\, and guidance\n	Appraise the tools and prepare to 
 implement Community control for data in your work.\n\n\nThis session is 
 designed for non-profits\, activists\, community organizations\, and the 
 researchers and data professionals who work with them!\n\nDetails: Any 
 preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This 
 virtual workshop will be recorded and shared on the same page\, and 
 discoverable via the Sherman Centre's Online Learning 
 Catalogue.\n\nFacilitator Bio: \n\nDanica Evering holds broad experience
