Citizen Science
El pasado 6 de abril se puso en maracha la plataforma europea EU-Citizen.Science para el intercambio de conocimientos, herramientas, formación y recursos para la ciencia ciudadana. FECYT participa en este proyecto europeo junto al Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación y la Fundación Ibercivis.
For three years, academic experts in scientific policy and scientific advice and professionals in citizen science and communication - led by Science for Change (Spain) - will collaborate to support the European Union to co-design innovative strategies to improve scientific communication in European citizen science projects in order to improve their impact.
