What is Citizen Science?

Citizen's science for sustainability

Citizen Science is the collaborative gathering and collation of information and knowledge on a particular topic. Like a swarm of bees that flies out in all directions to identify the best sources of honey in the beehive. The research process involves not only people from science and research, but above all citizens who are interested in the topic and want to conduct experiments and surveys and find answers to questions that concern us all as a society.

The advantage of Citizen Science is that information can be gathered in a much broader and more diverse way, and everyone can be active in research.
