ECSA working groups carry out strategic work around a particular theme related to citizen science. Membership of an ECSA working group is open to all ECSA members, and the groups decide themselves which activities to work on. Their achievements and future plans are presented at our annual general assembly.
Each working group is led by a chair or chairs, who are elected for two years at the general assemblies. The chairs are responsible for the communication within the working group, as well as communication with ECSA headquarters. This includes providing written updates for ECSA annual reports and attending the annual General Assembly to report about their work.
ECSA’s thematic working groups undertake a range of citizen science activities, which include research, exchanging experiences and capacity-building.
They are open to all ECSA members, and membership of a working group requires a time commitment to attend meetings and help out with tasks.
To join a working group, please contact the group chair directly.
