Fostering The Higher Education Sector In Europe: The Role of Citizen Science in Transforming Universities -
The European Commission is making a policy effort to provide support for the higher education system in the European Union, enabling it to effectively respond to the changing needs of society and the economy. Citizen science has the potential to play an important role in transforming the higher education system. Universities are now venturing into the realm of citizen science as a means to engage the public in scientific research, to teach science (or the scientific process) and promote alternative avenues of knowledge creation. Despite the potential advantages, citizen science is not yet widely adopted as a standard approach in high education and academic culture.
In this context, the European Citizen Science (ECS) project, which connects a rich citizen science community, wants to provide a space to exchange practical experiences in integrating and using citizen science practices in universities and to gather recommendations for the European Commission and other stakeholders in ways of supporting citizen science in the high education sector.
To do so, ECS is organising an online event for everyone (such as academics, educators, university staff, citizen science practitioners, early career researchers, policy makers, civil servants, general public and industry representatives) interested in learning about and discussing the role of citizen science in transforming universities in Europe.
