European Citizen Science
Ambassador Ireland
Hi I’m Oscar!
“I’m enthusiastic about utilizing technology as a tool, my citizen science efforts use a FabLab for collaborative projects. Through community-driven research, I seek to empower citizens and raise awareness.”
The ECS (European Citizen Science) project aims to create a network of 28 Citizen Science Ambassadors (EU-27 + the UK) to support the activities in the project, raise awareness about citizen science and spread and strengthen citizen science in Europe. All Citizen Science Ambassadors have been selected through an open call.
My objectives as ambassador are
Represent
the eu-citizen.science platform nationally and promote and expand its content with national initiatives and resources
Promote
citizen science amongst research organisations and academics nationally
Support
community building, help organise engagement activities at national and local level in collaboration with ECS partners and affiliated entities
Share
and disseminate ECS project activities, events and news.
Help

“Widening and strengthening the European citizen science community through capacity building and awareness is the main goal”
