Does anyone have any resources on the dangers of #OpenData / #OpenMapping in terms of threats/risks to human rights. Specifically #indigenous peoples, land rights, data extractivsm? Asking for someone else.
So, need policies and procedures, and above all lots of awareness of local contexts and issues. Working in collaboration with local/indigenous communities to understand needs, align data practices to positive outcomes and reduce risks is needed.
@ekansa @steko Interesting. Someone's asking on an #OpenStreetMap list if you wanna get in touch with them.

TBH this never occurred to me, but when you point it out it's obvious that there are dangers with "open data"....
