Navigating Platforms for Participatory Sciences
Online17:00
De 11 Dez até 11 Dez, 2025
Curious about platform features? Want to hear what’s new?
No matter where you are in your project’s lifecycle and whether you are on a custom or shared platform, this conversation with platform developers will give you insights, ideas, or inspiration for your project’s next steps.
In this webinar, we walk you through some key considerations for choosing the right platform and hear from the six most commonly used web platforms for data collection/classification supporting participatory science projects in North America: CitSci.org; Zooniverse; FieldScope; Anecdata; iNaturalist; and GLOBE Observer. While we spend some time on platform features and updates, we will focus our program on a discussion of the kinds of research and participant experiences best supported by each.
Conference: Environmental citizen science in conflict zones for accountability and empowerment
Copenhagen (online)De 24 Out até 24 Out, 2025
Join us online or in Copenhagen on October 24th as we explore the potential role of environmental citizen science in areas affected by armed conflicts. This event will be a multidisciplinary discussion on the role of citizen-generated data and citizen science in environmental monitoring within conflict zones, with a particular focus on Ukraine after and during the Russian full-scale invasion. We will bring together perspectives from academic institutions, civil society organisations, policymakers, and Ukrainian students to explore the legal and social dimensions of participatory research in this context.
Join us for an engaging afternoon of discussion, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing. This conference is open to all, free of charge and will be held in person in Copenhagen. However, recognising the dire situation and ongoing travel restrictions affecting Ukraine, we are also offering the possibility for online participation to ensure everyone can join, regardless of location or circumstance.
With the special collaboration of the keynote speakers: Pier Carlo Sandei (Senior Programme Officer at UNEP); Jan Ortgies, Head of Legal at The Register of Damage for Ukraine (Council of Europe); and Dr. Ivan Rusev, Head of research department at National Nature Park Tuzlivski lymany (Ukraine).
Is citizen science exploitative?
14:15
De 24 Set até 24 Set, 2025
September 2025 International PostDoc Forum for the Philosophy of Science - This program showcases virtual research presentations from international scholars with commentaries from local MCPS community members. The first speaker of our Autumn 2025 series is Rose Trappes, from the University of Bergen, Norway.

She will discuss "Is citizen science exploitative?" with commentary from Emilie Snell-Rood, part of the College of Biological Sciences, University of Minnesota.

Citizen science, or participatory science, uses the labour and expertise of volunteers to serve the needs and interests of professional scientists. Not infrequently, this involves siphoning valuable epistemic resources produced by these volunteers to scientists and databases in privileged institutions in the global north. Is citizen science therefore exploitative? And if it is, is this a problem? In this talk I consider these questions using resources from political philosophy, social epistemology, and philosophy of science, and drawing on cases of citizen science from ecology and meteorology.
