Join IEFLL as a student
Masters students at York University and the University of Iceland have the opportunity to complete the Ecological Footprint Initiative training program focused on sustainability informatics. This comprehensive training program includes the chance to co-produce an edition of the National Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity Accounts. Additionally, students can choose to focus their master’s research on applications and methodologies of Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity. PhD students at both universities can complete the training program and focus their thesis and dissertation on Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity research. The research and applications students undertake related to Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity will be supported by diverse partners that have expertise and skills in many areas. Explore what courses are required in the IEFLL training program.
To successfully enter the IEFLL partnership as a student, one must first have successful admittance to York University in the Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change or the University of Iceland in the Faculty of Environment and Natural Resources.

Join IEFLL as a partner or collaborator
The partnership is accepting new partners and collaborators. IEFLL has partners and collaborators from academic and non-academic sectors, including research institutions, corporations, non-profits, and the public sector. Joining IEFLL offers access to the national Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity Accounts, including micro-level data on the embodied Ecological Footprint of specific traded commodities. This rich dataset also offers aggregated and unaggregated data on the production and consumption of commodities and the Ecological Footprint on a production and consumption basis for the national level. This data also offers opportunities to be scaled to other levels, such as the individual level, and is relatable to land use and land cover policy. In addition to access to data, joining IEFLL also offers expertise and frameworks for understanding economic-ecological relationships and methodologies for measuring regenerative capacity.
To sign on as a partner of IEFLL a signed letter of support is needed from the institution or organization. An individual can also join IEFLL, without an organization, as a collaborator.
