Focus on the status of citizen science in Lithuania

The EU-Citizen.Science Consortium will meet for the first time in Vilnius to reflect on the first eight months of the project and discuss its next steps. For this occasion, our local hosts, project partners Monika Mačiulienė (Mykolas Romeris University, MRU) and Eglė Ramanauskaitė (Human Computation Institute) organise an event with local stakeholders to discuss the current situation of citizen science in Lithuania.

Leading the communication and dissemination of EU-Citizen.Science, Ecsite interviewed Eglė and Monika to learn more about the status of citizen science in Lithuania and our hosts' expectations on the event they organise.

Project

EU-Citizen.Science

Citizen Science is a rapidly expanding and diversifying field of innovation with significant implications for, and potential benefits to, society, policy, and various academic research areas. The ambition of EU-Citizen.Science is to build, fill, and promote a sustainable platform and mutual learning space for providing different tools, best practice examples and relevant scientific outcomes that are collected, curated, and made accessible to different stakeholders, ranging from interested citizens over scientific institutions up to politicians and public media in order to mainstream Citizen Science in Europe.
