Field Safety Training: Changing the Culture of Fieldwork

О курсе

The Field Safety Training: Changing the Culture of Fieldwork course provides field research team leaders and field team participants with the skills and tools to build a welcoming and supportive field culture. This course will help you and your team develop norms and codes of conduct, and review or clarify leadership and field team organization. Additionally, you and your team will learn how to identify unsafe and harmful behaviors, respond appropriately to dissipate and mitigate these behaviors, and support those impacted by the behaviors. Finally, the course will provide tools to create, build, and support inclusive mentorship, consider additional factors for mitigating risk to diverse individuals in the field, and how to build cultural inclusivity within your team. This course provides tools to address a growing awareness of the challenges of working (far) away from support networks and resources traditionally found at home. A deliberate approach to managing behaviors and hazards in the field can keep every individual safe and the team performing. This course is designed for every member of research teams operating in field environments, from seasoned academics, technical support staff to undergraduates.
