This session explores how digital cartographic technologies are being used to support Indigenous knowledge systems, histories, and justice initiatives. Presenters highlight efforts in participatory and collaborative mapping projects, critical remote sensing, data sovereignty, and knowledge mobilization. Case studies from Quebec, Ontario, and the Arctic emphasize decolonial approaches and the role of community-led mapping to challenge dominant narratives and foster Indigenous agency in the representation of space, memory, and governance.
