Definition: metadata schema sub-block containing information about Traditional Knowledge or Biocultural labels

Requirement: optional

Occurrence: 0-n

Example JSON

Note: The Traditional Knowledge (TK) and Biocultural (BC) Labels are tools for Indigenous communities and local organizations. Developed through sustained partnership and testing within Indigenous communities across multiple countries, the Labels allow communities to express local and specific conditions for sharing and engaging in future research and relationships in ways that are consistent with already existing community rules, governance, and protocols for using, sharing, and circulating knowledge and data. Labels can be applied to websites, publications, datasets, museum exhibitions, items in a collection, genetic samples, and more. Communities can customize and apply their TK and BC Labels using the Local Contexts Hub. Labels should only be used by or in conjunction with Indigenous communities and local organizations. Institutions and researchers should use ‘Notices’ instead. See https://localcontexts.org/labels/about-the-labels/ for more information.
