Dear colleagues,
I hope you can join us for the following webinar on Tuesday, October 6, from 1:00 to 2:00
p.m. PDT: Publishing Indigenous Perspectives Online: How RavenSpace Editors Approach
Collaboration<https://bccampus.ca/event/publishing-indigenous-perspectives-online-how-ravenspace-editors-approach-collaboration/>.
RavenSpace, developed by UBC Press, is a digital platform for publications that aims to
support Indigenous community-based research and authorship. It functions as a place where,
with community permission, Indigenous knowledge can be shared, but also protected—where
knowledge holders may maintain and assert their cultural protocols that govern how certain
materials should be accessed, and by whom. In this session, we will show how RavenSpace
has integrated publishing and web design workflows with the needs and rights of Indigenous
community members and authors. We will share some of RavenSpace’s collaborative
approaches, and, more broadly, will discuss additional ways to build cultural
considerations into editorial and design choices. Attendees are welcome to share their own
examples of approaching culturally sensitive materials in a collaborative environment, as
we will allow time for discussion.
