Community Management

If you think you can set up and plan your Citizen Science project on your own, think again! To find people collaborating with you in a project, you need to know who they are before you start planning too many other project details. Who are the actors and organizations you need to make your project successful? What are their interests? How can you reach them? And how do you set up a project that takes different interests into account? If you can answer all these questions, there is a good chance you will find enough citizen scientists collaborating with you.
In this workshop, we are going to use an example of a Citizen Science project and work through a checklist you can later use for your own projects.
