Roadmap to integrate Indigenous genome assemblies into a national instance of the international human reference genome resource

This proposal is to develop a roadmap for how the outcomes of this research can be developed for incorporation in the pan-human reference graph. The project will address quality and data/metadata standards, data curation, methodological and analytical, hosting and Indigenous governance requirements, validation and documentation systems, proficiency testing, staffing, training and education requirements, participant involvement, accessibility, national coordination and international engagement.
