Engaging with Citizen Scientists: Integrating Environmental and Climate Considerations into Research Practice
What is this about?
This micromodule accompanies the RE4GREEN guidance document “Engaging with Citizen Scientists: Integrating Environmental and Climate Considerations into Research Practice.”
The guidance explores how environmental, climate, and justice considerations intersect with citizen science activities across the research lifecycle. It addresses practical challenges, such as inclusion, data governance, sensitive environmental information, consent, power imbalances, recognition, and conflicts of interest.
Learners are invited to read the guidance document first. The exercises below support reflection on responsible, fair, and ethically robust citizen science practices.
