Project Overview

The Council of the Haida Nation (CHN) developed a data management policy.

This policy is being implemented and will be applicable to all of CHN to help create secure, consistent data training and storage across departments.

The project included hiring a data manager, training staff, and developing Standard Operating Guidelines to securely manage and archive critical data.

“The data management needs were greater than what was originally identified... so the project grew, but for the benefit of the Nation.”

“This project is so exciting because it’s creating a framework that empowers staff to be responsible data stewards.”
