CITIZEN SCIENCE

public participation in conservation research workshop

The workshop serves as a forum for fostering collaboration and networking opportunities among researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders involved in nature conservation and citizen science. Its aim is to address the challenges and limitations associated with citizen science methodologies. By discussing the practical aspects, ethical considerations, data quality concerns, and other issues related to citizen science research, participants can collectively work towards improving the methodology and creating logical framework for doing citizen science in the Philippines systematically.
