An increasing number of citizen science projects and initiatives are being implemented across Europe.

date:  23/11/2022

This rapidly emerging mode of research and innovation shows substantial potential in terms of achieving greater societal impact and increasing trust in science, by leveraging collective societal capabilities, enlarging the scope of the R&I, and increasing relevance, responsiveness and transparency. 

The MLE on Citizen Science is already well under way, and has covered five topics:

  • Introduction and overview on citizen science;
  • Ensuring good practices and impacts;
  • Maximising the relevance and excellence of citizen science
  • Enabling environments and sustaining citizen science;
