Our Living Encyclopedia is part of our work in creating Living Knowledges. Here you will find community led and scientifically rooted reportings that are in constant progression as injustice is an evolving phenomena.
Living Knowledges is a realm where knowledge finds a sanctuary to flourish, evolve, and expand beyond the confines of conventional repositories. It is a dynamic space dedicated to storing and nurturing knowledge in a manner that allows it to adapt, transform, and grow with the passage of time.
This is a digital ecosystem designed to accommodate the vast array of information amassed by humanity. It goes beyond the static nature of traditional libraries and archives, embracing the concept of living ideas that continuously evolve. Thus, knowledge is envisioned as a living entity that undergoes perpetual enhancement and refinement. Every piece of information is treated as a seed, capable of germinating, branching out, and cross-pollinating with other ideas.

The light disrupts the circadian rhythms of humans and wildlife alike as well as lowering melatonin production, which results in sleep deprivation, fatigue, headaches, stress, anxiety, and other health problems.
Covid Workforce Recovery
Covid-19 has produced a widespread and communally traumatic event that will have trans generational consequences. One of the key consequences will be its toll on long term health, both mental and physical.
Secondary Effects of Covid
This report is to help frame Covid-19 as an experience rather than the current binary framing of “sick or not sick”. The reason this is necessary is to identify the different solutions, resources, strategies required for an equitable recovery, so no one is left behind.
