On this #TBT we look back to July 2023 when FNIGC debuted the new OCAP® logo!

This new logo reflects the First Nations roots of our work, with the drum representing equality and communication.

Learn more about OCAP® at the link below!
https://fnigc.ca/ocap-training/
The First Nations Principles of OCAP® - The First Nations Information Governance Centre
The First Nations principles of ownership, control, access, and possession – more commonly known as OCAP® – assert that First Nations have control over data collection processes, and that they own and control how this information can be used.
