Working Group 1 - Ensure scientific quality of Citizen Science

Key Recommendations from the WG1 about Quality Aspects in Citizen Science

A better understanding on the wiki tools and their benefits: The links between citizen science and the use of these powerful knowledge dissemination tools was made obvious through the identification of the various potential citizen science groups that were marginalised and the ways these could be included within the community.

This document reports the structure and the main outputs of the training course “Where science meets society: citizen science as an emerging tool to expand research horizons” held in Erice (Italy) from the 26th November to the 1st December 2018.

The workshop focused on where we are in WG1 and also gave the feeling of a writing workshop (editathon) for the participants.

A List of data quality standards across different disciplines was developed.
