CitSci India 2023
OnlineDe 01 Dez até 02 Dez, 2023
The 4th annual conference on citizen science for biodiversity, CitSci India 2023, will be held virtually on the 1st and 2nd of December, 2023. The conference on Day 1, will kick start with discussions on how citizen science can further education goals, and on Day 2 we will explore the challenges of inclusion in citizen science and explore ways of engaging with a diverse audience.
Each year the conference brings together people who actively engage in citizen science to showcase existing citizen science projects and share their experiences and insights on the use of citizen science to monitor, protect, and restore biodiversity.
6º Forum Citizen Science
Freiburg, Alemanha06:00
De 29 Nov até 30 Nov, 2023
Criar conhecimento com diversidade é o lema do Fórum Ciência Cidadã 2023 ,que acontecerá nos dias 29 e 30 de novembro na Universidade de Freiburg. A diversidade é onipresente no campo da ciência cidadã – por exemplo, em termos de métodos, atores, grupos-alvo, valores e tópicos. O Fórum Ciência Cidadã 2023 analisa, portanto, o tema da diversidade na ciência cidadã sob diferentes ângulos. Como parte do Fórum Ciência Cidadã 2023 deste ano na Universidade de Freiburg, gostaríamos de explorar estas e muitas outras questões com você. Esperamos contribuições de investigadores cidadãos, comunicadores científicos, cientistas e todas as outras partes interessadas das diversas disciplinas e áreas da ciência cidadã. O Fórum Ciência Cidadã pretende oferecer uma função de intercâmbio e networking para iniciadores de projetos, comunicadores científicos, atores sociais e políticos e investigadores cidadãos interessados. Você está calorosamente convidado a ajudar a moldar o programa com seus diversos conhecimentos, experiências e perspectivas.

Workshop: legal issues regarding citizen generated data for the water domain
Online10:00
De 27 Nov até 27 Nov, 2023
Join OTTERS for a workshop on legal issues around citizen science
The OTTERS project promotes societal transformation for marine and freshwater stewardship through scaling up citizen science. Join for an online workshop on 27 November, 14:00-15:30 (CET), to discuss legal issues around water-based citizen science and engagement, including data protection, cross-border considerations, and compliance.
The event will include presentations from Professor Georgios Sylaois (Democritus University of Thrace, Greece), DG MARE / Digital Twin Ocean and more, followed by a co-creation workshop to define legal recommendations.
If you are interested in practical legal considerations in citizen science projects, register now. The OTTERS project promotes societal transformation for marine and freshwater stewardship through scaling up citizen science, and supports the coordination of citizen science initiatives focused on water.
This workshop focuses on legal issues around water-based citizen science and engagement (including GDPR and citizens’ privacy). Key topics of discussion will be:
● Data protection and privacy risks and challenges, with respect to marine and freshwater related citizen science piloting.
● Autonomy, dignity, informed consent, trust, asymmetries of power, fairness, gendered innovation, equity and direct or indirect discrimination.
● The cross-border character of the OTTERS project.
● Applicable or emerging legislation and anticipatory compliance requirements.

INCENTIVE Replication Guide and Toolkit Workshop
Online09:00
De 21 Nov até 21 Nov, 2023
⏳ Registration is open until 20 November, 2023.
The INCENTIVE project aims to demonstrate the potential of citizen science through the co-creation, establishment and assessment of Citizen Science Hubs in four EU Universities. By doing so, the project accelerates the transition of these institutions to more inclusive, open and democratic innovation and scientific governance, under the principles of Responsible Research and Innovation. The project seeks to deliver a legacy to European and international research institutes on how to create and operate their own Hub with the aim to secure a sustainable future.
One of the final and main results and outcomes of the INCENTIVE project is the production of a replication guide and toolkit. The aim of this guide is to serve as a practical tool for RPFOs on their journey to institutionalising citizen science. It will include roadmaps and lessons learned throughout the project, providing practical recommendations, methodologies and tools to overcome potential barriers and obstacles in the process.
To ensure that the replication guide and toolkit is as practical and valuable as possible, we would like to invite citizen science practitioners, researchers and relevant stakeholders to provide their experiences, feedback and thoughts as we present the first version of the document.
Join us for a workshop to exchange ideas, discuss lessons learned and share personal stories on the road to institutionalising citizen science. Come join us for an interactive session!

Autumn Data School - Citizen Science Workshop
Online00:00
De 15 Nov até 15 Nov, 2023
Historical biodiversity documents comprise an important link to the long-term data life cycle and provide useful insights into several aspects of biodiversity research and management. By rescuing historical data, we better understand the ocean’s past, and we are able to predict the future of ocean life.
Participants to the workshop will be introduced to scientific practices and concepts such as the workflow for a citizen science project, the data standardization process, and the (meta)data curation. In particular, in the morning session there will be the presentation of the LifeWatch Citizen Science Platform and the introduction to Zooniverse and Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL), while the evening session will be dedicated to the setting up of participant’s Citizen Science projects through Zooniverse.
* Note that all data generated from this workshop will be made available through EMODnet Biology and due to established data flows, in OBIS and GBIF as well.
Participants are welcome to bring with them scanned logsheets from cruises they have participated, but in the absence of enough resources, the organising team can make documents available for the project creation in the citizen science platforms.
There is an enormous amount of (meta)data waiting to become FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable), and citizen science data rescue is a promising resource towards this end.
If you are interested in participating, either online or in presence, you can register at the link.

Co-CiPhil: Co-creating Environmental Citizen Science Capacity in the Philippines
Cagayan de Oro City (Filipinas)De 06 Nov até 17 Nov, 2023
The MSU – Iligan Institute of Technology is currently hosting the Co-CiPhil: Co-creating Environmental Citizen Science Capacity in the Philippines VLIR-UOS International Training Program (ITP) Workshop 2, taking place from November 6 to 17, 2023, at the Chali Beach Resort and Conference Center in Cagayan de Oro City. This two-week workshop, attended by 50 scholars representing various local and international state universities, as well as local government units and medical institutions, is part of a series of workshops on quantitative and qualitative methodologies in citizen science research. These workshops are collaboratively organized by Universiteit Hasselt (UHasselt), a prestigious Flemish university in Belgium, MSU-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT), and the Visayas State University (VSU). The primary objective of the International Training Program (ITP) is to systematically incorporate global perspectives, fostering a supportive, inclusive, and networked learning environment. Through these programs, professionals enhance their transversal skills and gain state-of-the-art knowledge in sustainable development, transforming into globally aware citizens capable of driving positive change within their networks.
During the first week, the workshop delves into environmental monitoring and management (Course 3) under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Natalie Beenaerts from UHasselt. Emphasis is placed on the significance of co-creating citizen science or community-based research, with a specific focus on empowering women and other marginalized groups. In the subsequent week, Prof. Dr. Thomas Neyens from UHasselt leads discussions on establishing robust study designs, particularly in the context of observational studies and citizen science initiatives. The curriculum covers the foundational aspects of statistical study design, while also addressing practical considerations in less-than-ideal settings.
