In Spring of 2024, the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) Broadening Participation Committee (BPC) and the LTER Network Office collaborated on a network-wide survey assessing the current workplace climate and culture across LTER sites. Overall, our results indicate that field site cultures across LTER are improving, but we still have work to do, and leadership matters. We will use the results of this survey to plan future network-wide activities such as professional development, tool-kits, resources, and community-building activities.
