Working group
members
There are currently twenty-three people collaborating in this working group.
Activity plan
We have bi-monthly meetings that are dedicated to practical exchanging experiences on evaluation and impact assessment in citizen science.
In three sub-groups we are specifically working on:
- An special issue related to impact assessment in citizen science
- A “cookbook” on how to plan and implement assessment processes in citizen science projects.
- The link between impact assessment and policy.
