Establishing a Social Research Infrastructure for Hazards and Disaster Studies – the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon Canada
收藏资源简介：
Establishing a Social Research Infrastructure for Hazards and Disaster Studies in Canada,” funded by the Canada Research Chairs Program (Award # CRC-2020-00128). This project aims to comprehensively asset map the existing hazards and disaster scholars, educational courses, modules, and programs at the post-secondary education organizations in the Northwest Territories Nunavut, and Yukon, Canada. Accordingly, data were collected from the official institution websites of two colleges in the Northwest Territories (https://www.ece.gov.nt.ca/en/services/adult-and-post-secondary-education/northern-post-secondary-opportunities), one college in Nunavut (https://gov.nu.ca/education/information/adult-learning-0) ), and one university three private training institutions (https://yukon.ca/en/find-registered-private-training-institution) in Yukon. These data include the information of (1) courses that focus on climate change, hazards, risks, and disasters, and (2) academic programs that are related to the topic of climate change, disasters, and other crises. The original data also indicate faculty members who have expertise in conducting hazard and disaster research. However, faculty members’ data (e.g., names, email addresses, and office telephone numbers) cannot be shared publicly due to privacy and ethical concerns. The users may use the courses and programs information included in this dataset to identify related faculty members. These data illustrate the strengths and weaknesses of hazards-and-disaster-specific post-secondary education resources in the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon which might encourage hazards and disaster educators to understand the existing gaps and explore possible solutions. Researchers in Canada and internationally could use these data to navigate their potential research collaborators through related educational programs. Future students could use these data to search for hazards-and-disaster-related programs and courses, as well as contact potential faculty members in related departments. The general public could use the data to further search detailed information associated with the courses and programs they might be interested in as well as identify their community-based scholars through the courses and programs.
本项目受加拿大研究主席计划（Canada Research Chairs Program，资助编号：CRC-2020-00128）资助，题为‘加拿大灾害与风险研究社会研究基础设施构建’。 本项目旨在全面梳理加拿大西北地区、努纳武特地区及育空地区的中学后教育（post-secondary education）机构中，现有的灾害与风险研究学者、教育课程、教学模块及项目资源。 据此，研究团队从以下机构的官方网站采集数据：西北地区的2所学院（https://www.ece.gov.nt.ca/en/services/adult-and-post-secondary-education/northern-post-secondary-opportunities）、努纳武特地区的1所学院（https://gov.nu.ca/education/information/adult-learning-0），以及育空地区的1所大学与3所私立培训机构（https://yukon.ca/en/find-registered-private-training-institution）。 本次采集的数据包含两类信息：(1) 聚焦气候变化、灾害、风险相关的课程；(2) 与气候变化、灾害及其他危机议题相关的学术项目。 原始数据中还收录了具备灾害与风险研究专长的教职员工信息，但出于隐私与伦理考量，教职员工的个人数据（如姓名、电子邮箱及办公电话）无法公开共享。 数据集使用者可通过本数据集收录的课程与项目信息，定位相关教职员工。 本数据集清晰呈现了加拿大西北地区、努纳武特地区及育空地区灾害与风险相关中学后教育资源的优势与不足，可为灾害与风险教育工作者厘清现存缺口、探索可行解决方案提供参考。 加拿大及全球的研究人员可借助本数据集，依托相关教育项目发掘潜在的研究合作者。 潜在学生可通过本数据集检索灾害与风险相关的项目及课程，并联系相关院系的潜在教职员工。 普通公众可利用本数据集进一步查询感兴趣的课程与项目的详细信息，并依托课程与项目找到所在社区的相关研究学者。
