Mashup Score: 0Decolonising health data - 2 year(s) ago
Aug 9 marks the International Day of the World’s Indigenous People, which aims to celebrate and recognise this small but powerful community. Indigenous people are disproportionately affected by poverty and many studies have drawn links between their colonisation and poor health. For example Indigenous people have experienced negative mental health impacts after land dispossession and their life expectancy is up to 20 years lower than non-Indigenous people. This year’s theme, Indigenous Youth as Agents of Change for Self-determination, acknowledges that Indigenous youth are using cutting-edge technologies to develop a more sustainable future.

AI promises to bring many benefits to healthcare and research, but mistrust has built up owing to many instances of harm to under-represented communities. To amend this, participatory approaches can directly involve communities in AI research that will impact them. An important element of such approaches is ensuring that communities can take control over their own data and how they are shared.
