Citizen Science (CS) projects involve members of the general public as active participants in research. While some advocates hope that CS can increase scientific knowledge production ("productivity view"), others emphasize it may bridge a perceived gap between science and broader society ("democratization view"). We discuss how an integration both views allow to support complex sustainability transitions areas such renewable energy, health, or environmental conservation. first identify three...
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Since 2012, three organizations advancing the work of citizen science practitioners have arisen in different regions: The primarily US-based but globally open Citizen Science Association (CSA), European (ECSA), and Australian (ACSA). These associations are moving rapidly to establish themselves develop inter-association collaborations. We consider factors driving this emergence significance trend for as a field practice, an area scholarship, culture scientific...
Both citizen science and transdisciplinary sustainability research involve nonacademic actors in the production of knowledge while seeking to contribute transitions, albeit different ways. From science, researchers can learn about multiple ways engaging holders, producing sharing knowledge.
Abstract This article presents an overview of characteristics Citizen Social Science (CSS) in Germany. CSS is defined as scientific research the humanities and social sciences, carried out cooperation between professional non-professional researchers.

This report aims to enhance our understanding of stakeholder mapping for co-created citizen science initiatives. It presents and discusses findings from an international two-day workshop with researchers, event organizers, communication experts, artists realizing activities. Participants identified examples co-creation in their work mapped stakeholders three initiatives the "Doing Together Science" project. For each case, we provide overview groups involved lessons derived identifying actual...
Citizen science (CS) is increasingly becoming a focal point for public policy to provide data decision-making and widen access science. Yet beyond these two understandings, CS engages with political processes in number of other ways. To develop more nuanced understanding governance relation CS, this paper brings together theoretical analysis by social researchers reflections from practice. It draws on concepts Science Technology Studies sciences as well examples the "Doing-It-Together...
In diesem Artikel werden Kernzuschreibungen von Open Science und Citizen in der europäischen Wissenschaftspolitik analysiert zueinander Beziehung gesetzt. Beide Konzepte postulieren forcieren eine zukünftige Öffnung Wissenschaft – wobei die Open-Science-Politik vor allem auf den Prozess abhebt, während bei Konzeptualisierung Akteure ihre Interaktionen stärker im Vordergrund stehen. Beiden Ansätzen gemeinsam ist Anspruch an einen transparenten Forschungsprozess frei zugängliche...
