Poster Abstract

Citizen science in Poland has roots reaching back to the 19th century, although more structured and intentional efforts began to emerge in the early 21st century. Its development has been largely driven by non-governmental organisations and academic institutions, often supported by international programmes. While citizen science in Poland is a growing field with increasing visibility, it still faces several systemic challenges. These include a lack of stable national funding, minimal integration into research evaluation frameworks, and the absence of a central coordination strategy. The poster will present the current state of citizen science development in Poland, based on a review of relevant literature and the author's own project experience.
