Our vision
Governance as open infrastructure: written once, readable by people and machines, travelling with the data through every transfer, transformation and model, and kept current by a global community.
What we build
A shared map of the law
How jurisdictions recognise, permit and move neural data, maintained with legal scholars in every region.
Tools collaborations can use
Decision tools, modular agreements and an AI-assisted guide, applied before any data move.
Obligations that travel
Governance labels, consent tracking and a registry of models trained on neural data.
Institutional governance profiles
A standard profile per institution and repository, so partners stop answering the same questions, and a sandbox to test new practice with regulators.
Participation on equal terms
Benefit sharing, community governance and capacity building where legal support is scarce.
Tested before adopted
Instruments are tried on real collaborations and revised with the people who used them; researchers, lawyers, regulators and people with lived experience keep them current.
Global by design
Built with partners on four continents and with the BRIDGE community convened by INCF.
So far
The toolkit is new and under peer review. Adoption figures will appear here as they exist.
