    1. TRSP Desirable Characteristics Ethical data are data that do not stigmatise or portray Indigenous Peoples, cultures, or knowledges in terms of deficit. Ethical data are collected and used in ways that align with Indigenous ethical frameworks and with rights affirmed in UNDRIP. Assessing ethical benefits and harms should be done from the perspective of the Indigenous Peoples, nations, or communities to whom the data relate

    2. TRSP Desirable Characteristics Indigenous data use is unviable unless linked to relationships built on respect, reciprocity, trust, and mutual understanding, as defined by the Indigenous Peoples to whom those data relate. Those working with Indigenous data are responsible for ensuring that the creation, interpretation, and use of those data uphold, or are respectful of, the dignity of Indigenous nations and communities.

    3. TRSP Desirable Characteristics Data enrich the planning, implementation, and evaluation processes that support the service and policy needs of Indigenous communities. Data also enable better engagement between citizens, institutions, and governments to improve decision-making.

It similarly can provide greater insight into third-party policies and programs affecting Indigenous Peoples.

    3. TRSP Desirable Characteristics

      Contact (person or organisation) for the record in FAIRsharing that describes the repository: has the owner or maintainer of the repository claimed the record and vetted its descriptions? Although records in FAIRsharing are curated by its in-house team, the participation of the owner or maintainer of the repository helps verifying the information and tracking the evolution of the resource."

    4. TRSP Desirable Characteristics Review and annotation of the data performed by the repository (e.g. via a data submission tool that enforces some curation, or by its curation team): are there a set of minimum curation steps that repository performs on the submitted data? Is there a webpage or document that describes the type of curation done? This criteria is also related to the Data and Metadata Standards criteria.

    5. TRSP Desirable Characteristics

      The community-defined standards the repository implements to enable the representation of data and/or metadata in a consistent, machine readable form (e.g. via models, formats, schemas, vocabularies, ontologies).
