What a thoughtful way to organise paper authorship.
"Equity in author order" civiclaboratory.nl/2016/05/2… Great work @CLEAR_lab_ I am learning a lot. Thanks to @4DOceansLab for discussing this today. @MaxLiboiron

Aamjiwnaang First Nation is surrounded by Chemical Valley, the largest concentration of petrochemical refining in Canada. This report reveals how data sharing with the community is manipulated to support the continued violation of land and life. Read more yellowheadinstitute.org/data…

We reviewed peer-reviewed & grey literature on Indigenous participation in plastic pollution research. We found that "participation" ranged from "gathering data from Indigenous ppl" (traditional extraction) to Indigenous-led decision-making. 1/7

A great example of where to ask: how is Indigenous Data Sovereignty part of this convo?
Ancient pueblos have contemporary relatives. How much data gets shared when using modern technologies like LiDAR ? What are the future uses of the information? krqe.com/news/new-mexico/uni…

This is the last week our paper will be publicly available... sharing in case you want to add this to your course syllabus! Include ethical considerations into your ecology/soil science/data science/biodiversity course!

We've published a short training module on citational politics in time for syllabus season! Geared for undergrad & grad students, it has a short reading and a "quiz" asking how students will make choices about existing power relations in references.

What are @MemorialU Geographers up to in the summer? The @CLEAR_Lab_ hosts a weekly virtual writing room where lab members join from across six (!) time zones to write together. Writing is a big part of many researchers' work & CLEAR folks enjoy writing in a collective space!

From top left to right the names are: Christina Crespo (she/her); Sam Morton (she/her); Riley (he/him). On the bottom from left to right are Mel Flynn and Paul McCarney (he/him).

"Knowing when and how to cite, reference, and attribute knowledge is not just a technical skill. It is also a way we engage in politics (struggles pertaining to power) whether we want to or not"

“Above all, Sharpe asks us to become better readers, motivated not by extraction and violence, but by regard and tenderness. Practices of reading form the book’s infrastructure.”
I’m reminded of @CLEAR_Lab_’s practices around citational politics: civiclaboratory.nl/citationa…

It's easy to put labels like 'decolonising science', 'value-based research' and others in scientific endeavours. But, what does it really look like? What practical steps can researchers take towards doing such values based science? Why does it all matter?

People who have contributed to research need to be added as either authors or at the very least added to the acknowledgments.
If y’all want guidance on equity in author order, the @CLEAR_Lab_ has some great how tos: civiclaboratory.nl/2016/05/2…
