Bird Count India
Bird Count India is an informal partnership of organisations and groups working together to increase collective knowledge about bird distributions and populations. The project focuses on documenting the diversity and distribution of Indian birds.
Earthwatch
Earthwatch is one of the global institutions of citizen science which support environmental research. Earthwatch has provided a unique citizen-science paradigm for over four decades, empowering people, students, teachers, and corporate fellows to participate in essential field research to understand nature’s response to change. The goal of Earthwatch is to include people from all walks of life in scientific field research and education to advance the knowledge and behaviour required for a sustainable environment.
Centre for Ecological Research
The primary goal is to carry out excellent research on ecosystems and biodiversity, covering both aquatic and terrestrial life. Since it is challenging to address complex environmental concerns alone, they are striving to unite institutes and specialties. They are devoted to bridging the gap between science and society in addition to conducting research. The Centre consists of three Institutes: Institute of Evolution, Institute of Ecology and Botany, Institute of Aquatic Ecology.
SPOTTERON Citizen Science
Spotteron citizen science provides apps and services for science projects and research teams with a strong focus on design, technical professionality, reliability, and user interaction. The platform aids in designing apps and tools for data collection and analysis.
IPMA - Instituto Português do Mar e Atmosfera
Its a public institution devoted to Ocean and atmospheric science and technology. It was established in 2012. The mission of the organisation is to provide technical and scientific support for the definition of national policy, operating and maintaining scientific structure.
CIIMAR - Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research
The University of Porto’s Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research is a premier research and advanced training facility that is pushing the boundaries of ocean knowledge and innovation. In order to understand the relationships between these processes, comprehend the functioning of the ocean and ecosystems, and understand how they respond to global changes, CIIMAR promotes an integrated approach to ocean and coastal areas. This includes promoting knowledge of the biological, physical, and chemical dynamics of these environments as well as the impact of natural and human activities.
Citizen Science Center Zurich
The University of Zurich and ETH Zurich founded the Citizen Science Center (officially “Competence Center – Citizen Science”, CCCS) in 2017. The Center’s goal is to encourage and assist the implementation of citizen science initiatives that academic scientists and the general public have jointly devised.
The Center offers assistance with community administration, methodology, and digital technologies (web and mobile platforms).
European Citizen Science Association (ECSA)
ECSA is an international organisation that supports and advocates for public participation of science, in Europe. The association is currently hosted at the Museum for Natural History in Berlin, Leibniz Institute for Evolution and Biodiversity Research, Germany. ECSA uses the huge knowledge of its members to advance citizen science as a tool for evidence-based policy and sustainable development. It is accessible to both individual and institutional membership. This creates a link between citizen science and policy and facilitate the two-way flow of knowledge and information between citizens and policy-makers. Their vision is that citizens are recognised and empowered as key actors in promoting and supporting sustainable development in our world.
PSY:PLAN Institute for Architectural and Environmental Psychology
Based in Berlin, Germany, this small research and consultancy organisation focuses on doing evaluations and supporting studies for citizen science programmes.
Citizen Science Global Partnership (CSGP)
A network-of-networks called the Global Citizen Science Partnership aims to develop citizen science for a sustainable future. The UN Science-Policy-Corporate Forum on the Environment hosted the official launch of Citizen Science Global in December 2017. It brings together existing networks of citizen science practitioners and academics with advisory boards that include policy, business, and community-based viewpoints. This initiative was founded in partnership with United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and is also supported by United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
OSDG
Aiming to make the classification of research in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals open, transparent, and user-friendly, OSDG is an open source effort. We combine current studies into an all-encompassing strategy that eliminates the drawbacks of earlier ad hoc techniques and the duplication of study work.
Stockholm University Baltic Sea Centre
At the Stockholm University Baltic Sea Centre, researchers, environmental analysts, and communicators work together to advance marine management of diverse environmental concerns and expand knowledge about the sea.
The Baltic Sea Centre utilises an interdisciplinary approach to concentrate on the environmental issues facing the Baltic Sea and provides expertise to government agencies and other organisations engaged in marine governance and management. By providing infrastructure including field stations, ships, and marine modelling for research and instruction, we support and expand Stockholm University’s maritime activities.
European Science Communication Institute (ESCI)
A non-profit organisation called ESCI helps scientists interact with the public and communicate effectively in order to close the gap between science and society. ESCI was found in 2016 and started as the brainchild of journalist Elmar Bartlmae.
