Reminder to complete the CRDCN Researcher Survey!

Researchers likely have already been sent a link to the CRDCN Researcher Survey. 

The annual CRDCN researcher survey captures information that is vital to supporting the research undertaken in RDCs, and to continue providing that access and training at no cost to researchers in the CRDCN network. 
 
WE ASK YOU TO PLEASE COMPLETE YOUR SURVEY BY APRIL 1st, 2024. It takes less than 15 minutes, and can be completed anywhere (does not require access to an RDC). Thank you!

New data sets at the RDC: 

Pilot Study on Everyday Well-being (PSEW)

This pilot study asks Canadians in-the-moment questions about their activities and feelings. The goal is to gain a better understanding of the factors that influence well-being, particularly arts and culture activities, which are the main focus of this pilot. This initiative is in collaboration with Canada Council for the Arts and Canadian Heritage. The data will provide insight on the connections between activities and well-being, and could be used to develop programs that enhance people's lives.
