Thanks to SpotterOn, we now have a specially-designed APP to enable data collection by participatory (formerly citizen) scientists anywhere. If you would like to volunteer please download the APP and become a citizen scientist!
Who can become a participatory scientist?
Participatory scientists typically are not professional scientists. Rather, they are curious or concerned people who collaborate with professional scientists in ways that advance scientific research on topics they care about. Formerly called ‘citizen’ science, this has been updated to be more inclusive of different holders of knowledge, such as traditional ecological knowledge, and to be more inclusive of all people.
Science needs more eyes, ears, and perspectives than any scientist possesses. Enter participatory science: a collaboration between scientists and those of us who are just curious or concerned and motivated to make a difference.
