Exploring the Role of Artificial Intelligence in Transforming Citizen Science: Privacy, Data Sharing, and Open Science
Online08:00
De 19 Fev até 19 Fev, 2025
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming many fields, but its potential to revolutionise citizen science remains underexplored. Join the ECSA Citizen Science and Open Science working group on 19 February, 12:00 - 13:30 CET for a webinar exploring critical issues around data anonymisation and privacy in large-scale data sharing, and examine how AI can enhance citizen engagement, democratise science, and foster innovative approaches to data management, collection, and analysis.
A key focus will be on integrating citizen science data into AI systems to address challenges and risks, offering a new perspective on co-creating AI through the amai! programme in support of sustainable development and open science.
“Mobilising science and society to restore the Danube River Basin: Exploring routes to collective action”
De 25 Nov até 25 Nov, 2024
In our matchmaking workshop we bring together scientists doing research related to Danube River Basin ecosystems and Citizen Science practitioners, to find new ways to collaborate on the common goal of improving the Danube river’s ecological status, biodiversity and ecosystem connectivity (See our agenda below).

Plastic Pirates Summit 2024
BluePoint, Brussels, BelgiumDe 05 Nov até 06 Nov, 2024
Join us to discuss the bigger picture of engaging young Europeans, combatting plastic pollution, and promoting citizen science in the European Research Area. Discover its impact on the Mission Restore our Oceans and Waters by 2030. At the summit, you will be getting the unique opportunity to learn about and discuss together with young adults, teachers, researchers, policy makers and other stakeholders:
What are the scientific findings of Plastic Pirates – Go Europe! On plastic pollution in European rivers and oceans?
What have we learnt about plastic pollution sources, pathways and hotspots?
What was the experience for young adults in the citizen science initiative across Europe and what can we learn from their feedback?
How has participation affected their knowledge and attitudes?
How does citizen science and engagement contribute to the monitoring and implementation of EU policies for ocean and waters
What has been learned over the course of the project from upscaling and Europeanising a citizen science campaign to 13 European countries?
What kind of lessons can be drawn for local, regional, national and European public engagement, for combatting plastic waste pollution, for supporting citizen science initiatives, and for the European Research Area as a whole?
Belgian Citizen Science Inspiration and Networking Event 2024
Mechelen, BélgicaDe 12 Set até 12 Set, 2024
On September 12, Scivil organizes a Citizen Science Inspiration and Networking Day which will take place at Lamot in Mechelen. This year, we are organising the networking day in collaboration with FARO, Histories, and the AfricaMuseum. Similar to the previous edition, you can expect an inspiring opening panel, a series of interesting talks and workshops covering various aspects of citizen science, and a pleasant networking lunch, this time with a poster session. We offer many fascinating citizen science sessions on themes such as working with the media, inclusion and diversity, how to start with citizen science, and practical examples from health research and social sciences. This edition we also put an extra spotlight on the heritage sector. Within heritage there is a long tradition of collaboration with volunteers, whether or not in the form of citizen science. Through the collaboration with FARO, Histories and the AfricaMuseum, we want to ensure inspiring cross-pollination between citizen science and heritage.
Sessions take place in Dutch and English. The programme offers sessions for beginners in citizen science as well as for experienced initiators looking for more depth.
Participation is free. Are you registered, but can't come? Let us know as soon as possible and avoid a no-show fee (50 EUR).

Postdoc (f/m/x) Citizen science, biodiversity and urban greening plans in Europe
EuropeDe 13 Jul até 23 Jul, 2024
Application deadline: 23.07.2024 -- The UrbanNaturePlans+ (UNPplus, UNP+) project will help develop the next generation of Urban Greening Plans in selected European cities (Mannheim, Berlin, Leipzig, Burgas, Belgrade, Paris, Barcelona), aiming to foster a systemic, integrated, and inclusive planning framework toward bending the curve of biodiversity loss. The UFZ will contribute to UNP+ by advancing citizen science to monitor biodiversity (with a focus on butterflies), and empower citizens and administrators to take more informed decisions on urban green areas. The candidate will advance citizen science efforts; and participate in analyzing how green spaces improve health, wellbeing and equity, as part of a contribution to the implementation of the Berlin Urban Nature Pact.
