Innovation

Our Innovation Team works on projects funded by the EU’s key funding programme for research and innovation – Horizon Europe

We are continually innovating to make our science more impactful and to stay at the forefront of the global citizen science movement. We lead and contribute to a range of projects that advance the field of citizen science by researching its impact on society, sharing expertise and developing new technological tools.
