EU-Citizen. Science - the new platform for sharing, initiating, and learning citizen science in Europe
The capacity-building project "EU-Citizen.Science" started in January 2019 as a consortium of 23 organisations, representing 14 European Member States and a variety of partners ranging from universities to non-governmental organizations, local authorities, civil society organisations, small to medium-sized enterprises, and natural history museums. With the EU-Citizen.Science platform, we aim to develop a mutual learning space where different tools, best practice examples and relevant scientific outcomes are collected, curated, and made accessible to different stakeholders, ranging from interested citizens and media to scientific institutions, politicians and donor organisations. The project is supported by the European Commission funding-framework Horizon 2020.
