This course is aimed for Indigenous researchers who wish to learn about the importance of adopting a strengths-based approach to storytelling through statistics, while also taking ownership of data. Data literacy has become increasingly important in the digital age, where vast amounts of data are generated and used in various fields such as business, science, healthcare, and government. In this context, it is crucial that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people possess the skills to analyse our own data.
