Citizen science

HOME | training | citizen science

Citizen science is an exciting way for local citizens to get involved and contribute valuable scientific data. Many studies focus on migratory species.

  • Birds
  • Invertebrates
  • Fish

More and more of these projects span international boundaries and are ideal for studying questions about full-life cycle biology. Citizens living near migratory populations are mobilized to monitor and track animals, and their work is invaluable on a variety of fronts.

  • Provide a local constituency that is dedicated and educated about full-life cycle biology
  • Promote local solutions to environmental problems
  • Influence the behavior of the surrounding community and stakeholders
  • Support and encourage policy change beyond the local level
