What ALA gives ALCW • Amazing resource • Challenges -
a few • Worth struggling with?...........Absolutely!
Atlas of Living Australia Cornerstone of ecological science • Central
repository • International links • Citizen Science co-ordination? • Continual development
Citizen Science: policy framework • We: • live in a
scientific society • need a scientifically engaged and literate community • need greater uptake of science in schools and as a career
Why scientists need citizens • Computer modelling - only works
with good baseline data • Scientists need to know what is there now • Not enough scientists; not enough funds
Why citizens want science • Enthusiasm and technology serving science
• Science is within us and we thrive while learning with experts • But...we need scientists to lead & help build community capacity
Global Citizen Science: is Australia up for it? • European
Association of Citizen Science launched 8th June 2013 • OPAL - an exemplar for Australia
None
OPAL - OPen Air Laboratories • 500,000 engaged in outdoor
research • Science uptake in schools from 16% - 25% • 7 national major research projects • Significant environmental data • Shifts in perceptions, behaviours & skills
Citizen Scientists armed with instruments of technology • Alone we
will create a lot of excitement and noise • Led by scientists we can create a symphony of science
And you can’t start too early.......
