The Research Data Centres (RDC) Program

The Research Data Centres RDCs are part of an initiative by Statistics Canada, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) and university consortia to help strengthen Canada's social research capacity and to support the policy research community.

• The research data centres provide opportunities to: generate a wide perspective on Canada's social landscape; provide social science research facilities across the country in both larger and smaller population centres; expand the collaboration between Statistics Canada, SSHRC, CIHR, CFI, universities and academic researchers, and build on the Data Liberation Initiative; and train a new generation of Canadian quantitative social scientists.
