A warm welcome to the Carnaval Lab! We come from multiple corners of the world to study the awe-inspiring biological diversity of our planet. We believe that documenting, understanding, and protecting global biodiversity is only possible if jointly led by scientists, stakeholders, and community members of all backgrounds. As a lab, we value and base our work on mutual respect and support. We believe that the best biodiversity science builds from strong collaborations, particularly in tropical, megadiverse countries.

Carnaval Lab Statement

​

Our research integrates multiple fields of study – Biology, Geography, Remote Sensing, and Computer Sciences. Racism, gender-bias, and discrimination remain in all of them. 

​

We denounce every type of discrimination or harassment in these and other fields of science. We commit:

  1. To acknowledge, accommodate, and promote the inclusion of all of our lab members, students and colleagues – on campus, in the field, and in professional events worldwide.

  2. To acknowledge and condemn any type of discrimination – both historical and contemporary. We commit to provide a safe space for all, to be allies and advocates.

  3. To empower all of our lab members to engage and to lead. We seek to remove barriers to opportunities by recruiting, welcoming, retaining, supporting, and empowering students of all backgrounds through our research, our teaching, and our service.  

  4. To enforce a community agreement that clearly articulates our values and how members are held accountable for their acts.
