On 19 February, the workshop “Getting Started with Citizen Science” took place in Leuven. Fourteen participants spent the whole day developing a first concept for their own citizen science project idea. After this succesful edition, we'll be organising the workshop once more on 3 June.
What can you expect?
Step‑by‑step brainstorming and development of an initial concept for your citizen science project
An introduction to methods, target groups, communication, and project management in citizen science
Guidance from trainers at Scivil, the Flemish knowledge centre for Citizen Science
Who is this workshop for?
You are a researcher taking your first steps in citizen science.
You have little practical experience with citizen science but want to explore the approach.
Important: You already have an initial idea for applying citizen science in your research. During the workshop, we will further develop your idea into a first project plan. We expect you to join with a preliminary idea for a potential project in which citizen science could be used. Your idea can still be vague—we’ll shape it together during the workshop.
