About

In an age of global change, historical data is invaluable in allowing us to track and predict the threat to our ecosystems. However, this data is itself prone to extinction. The Living Data Project is a nationwide initiative to preserve and breathe new life into legacy datasets in ecology, evolution and environmental science, and to train graduate students in best practices in data management, reproducible research, synthesis statistics and scientific collaboration. We organize data archiving internships, student-dominated working groups, undergraduate hackathons, multi-university courses, and a national certificate program.

The Living Data Project is committed to the principles of inclusive, supportive and respectful interactions between project participants, including trainees, instructors and researchers from partner organizations. By participating in any Living Data Project activities, including courses, internships and working groups, you agree to:
  • Respect and value the contribution of participants with different lived experience and perspectives, recognizing that people can respectfully differ on many different topics.
  • Provide space for others to contribute ideas and questions, recognizing that the onus is on people who find it easy to claim such space to be the first to relinquish it.
  • Work to actively include other participants, realizing that many marginalized groups can be excluded – even unintentionally - without conscious effort.
  • Arrive with the assumption that all participants have good intentions.
  • Never, ever, ever, engage in harassing or discriminatory behaviour and understand that such behaviour may lead to your removal from the program.
  • Whoever violates these rules will be asked to stop immediately, and if inappropriate behaviour persists, procedures laid out by the the member’s home institution will take place.
To report an issue you can contact ciee-icee@biodiversity.ubc.ca or do it anonymously through this form.
