Data Center

Welcome to the Children’s Healthy Living (CHL) Data Center!

The Data Center wishes to promote the use of the data collected to aid researchers and policymakers in the Pacific, in accordance with human subject protection. CHL resources provide guidelines, protocols, and procedures for data requests and data sharing as established by the CHL Data Center Work Group. The purposes for requesting data as outlined below will determine the types of elements that can be shared:

  1. Data at the record level (child/family) data for manuscript publication, conference presentations and abstracts, reports, grant applications, dissertation/thesis, and program and policy development. The requested data sets will be generally limited use data sets and dates.
  2. Summary statistics for manuscript publication, conference presentations and abstracts, reports, grant applications, and program and policy development.
  3. Data for de-identified record level data for children/families or CAT elements. These may be requested for manuscript publication, conference presentations and abstracts, reports, grant applications, dissertation/thesis, program and policy development, and student projects (practicum, class, etc.).

The Data Center serves as a repository for all CHL data, including community readiness assessments, individual-level data, community-level data (CAT), group model building methods, and causal loop diagrams (CLDs) from all jurisdictions. Please submit a Research Request for record-level data. For additional information, please submit a Data Inquiry.

In addition to data, we also provide support in IT, study design and planning, data analysis, and research planning. Please submit a Service Request for a consultation.

Thank you.
