This two-day event will take place from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. PST Monday, November 7th and Tuesday, November 8th. We are hosting this year’s Summit in Whitehorse and we hope that practitioners and advocates from across the Arctic and northern territories (and across the various practice areas) will share their unique experiences, insights and successes with Canada’s Open Data Community as a whole, and in return we wish to place that community at the service of all the peoples of the North.

Our Summits introduce practitioners, champions and entrants to professional development in data for the public good. Our overarching aim for this Summit is to empower practitioners and advocates at every stage of their journey from the start, with generally-applicable Open Data professional development content and activities that stimulate capacity-building, innovation and progress regardless of participants’ subject areas. This year’s Summit features the following focus areas:
We see tremendous and highly inclusive opportunities in the leveraging of data and especially Open Data by entrepreneurs from all walks of life. Data can hone any business, and can be used to advantage regardless of location.
As Canada, First Nations, Métis & Inuit pursue reconciliation, their data sovereignty is essential to the process and to helping Indigenous communities make informed decisions for their members. First Nations’ Ownership, Control, Access and Possession (OCAP) principles are a leading example. This must be understood not only in theoretical, but also practical terms, as data governance strategies are developed.
The increasingly noticeable effects of anthropogenic climate change are manifest most of all across the North. Open Data is a key stratagem for all research and response activities in this space, and it must be propagated and leveraged among all participants.
Choose the option that best suits your situation. All taxes are included.
