Poster Short Abstract
IMPETUS would like to share the experience of the IMPETUS team in supporting new and ongoing citizen science projects through our IMPETUS accelerator programme, as well as promote the work that IMPETUS has achieved behind the scenes of the accelerator programme, in terms of methodology and policy.
Poster Abstract
As the IMPETUS project nears the end of its journey, we celebrate supporting three cohorts of citizen science initiatives as they chart their course toward success. Along the way, we’ve equipped them with the tools and resources needed to embark confidently on their adventures — proudly flying the flag for citizen science.
By its conclusion, IMPETUS will have launched 100 new citizen science projects and provided advanced guidance to help 25 ongoing initiatives achieve greater impact. Yet, this voyage has not always been smooth sailing.
In this session, we’ll share the highs and lows of supporting citizen science projects and reflect on the practices developed through the IMPETUS calls and accelerator programme. We’ll also highlight the outcomes and insights gained behind the scenes by the IMPETUS consortium, from creating new methodologies and policy contributions to fostering lasting impact across Europe. Through this work, IMPETUS has helped empower communities to advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the European Green Deal.
