This project provided an analysis of the difficulties inherent in this domain. First, we conducted a literature search on communal approaches to privacy. Two reports were written from this survey: (1) a report concentrating on sociological aspects of communal privacy, and (2) a report detailing the differences between First Nations approaches and those found in common and statutory law. The latter provided more detail on the potential issues arising when attempting to reconcile these systems. In particular, we noted potential for clashes between individual and collective interests. After holding a symposium on First Nations privacy and EHR systems with First Nations stakeholders, we drafted a third report that used techniques from social requirements engineering to construct agent-oriented models. These models were then used to elicit some key concerns and difficulties. We pointed out important future work to be performed. We hope the results will be of use for a variety of stakeholders, including researchers, public sector agencies and First Nations.
