<p>The Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences (RBINS) has an extensive and well established collaboration with volunteers in almost all its directorates (Taxonomy & Phylogeny, Public Services, Natural Environment, Scientific Heritage Service, Earth and History of Life). The nature of the activities of the «Citizen Scientists» (CSts) is really varied. With their help, the RBINS complements the lack of expertise in some research fields. They also valorize the scientific collections by studying them, as a result improving collection management of the collections and their accessibility. The goal of the « Citizen Science Day » was two fold: 1) highlight the work of the volunteers during a day of meeting and sharing experiences and 2) To show the diversity of projects, types of collaborations and areas of research that they contribute to within the Institute. They were invited to attend presentations and to exchange on their practices, expectations and wishes during a lunch, a movie and finally a cocktail.</p>

<p>The ‘<em>EU-Citizen.Science Stakeholders, Network & Community Mapping Report</em>’ is Deliverable 2.1 (D2.1) within the Coordination and Support Action (CSA) EU-Citizen.Science. The ambition of EU-Citizen.Science is to build, fill, and promote a sustainable platform and mutual learning space 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.</p>
<p>This deliverable maps and describes the key actors and interested parties whose support and involvement will ensure the success of the EU-Citizen.Science platform. This is accomplished by systematically reviewing the individuals and organisations who play a key role in citizen science activities in general, who are likely to also become the core users of the EU-Citizen.Science platform in particular.</p>
<p>The main objectives of this report are to:</p>
<p>- Deepen our understanding of the full range of stakeholders in citizen science,</p>
<p>- Identify the key stakeholders for the success of the EU-Citizen.Science platform, as users, contributors, and/or supporters,</p>
<p>- Expand our working definition of the relevant stakeholder categories and the relationship they are likely to have to the Platform</p>
<p>- Form the foundation for other core tasks and activities within the EU-Citizen.Science project across a range of Work Packages.</p>
<p>The primary stakeholder groups that we hereby identify, analyse, map and prioritise are: Academia, The Public, NGOs & CSOs, Industry & SMEs, The Press & Media, Educators, and Policy Makers & Funders.</p>
The living Stakeholder Register documents are available upon request from the wider community, for all to make a contribution to.

<p>This document combines four elements: a review of the socio-demographic context of citizen science, a literature review of learning in relation to citizen science, a community survey of training needs and a detailed analysis of a set of training resources. These four activities identified five distinct clusters of training needs/gaps:<br>
1. Scientific Training: topic-specific training that targets scientific methodologies and issues.<br>
2. Volunteer Management Training: topic-specific training that targets the engagement, maintenance and management of volunteer participants.<br>
3. Critical / Reflexive / New Possibilities Training: is training for unrepresented & critical agendas as well as the inclusion of marginalised groups in citizen science such as art and culture, activism & social justice, ethics and legal questions as well as practical crafting and ‘making’ skills.<br>
4. Schools Training: audience-specific training that is the most tightly focused training in that is targets teachers and young people in formal education.<br>
5. Practical / Operational Training: training that covers the practical and operations processes, methods and tools required to run and communicate citizen science projects.<br>
The majority of the training material analysed requires at least one hour of training with some requiring more than a day to complete, which is a significant time investment. This research sets the foundations for a typology of citizen training needs that will be presented in forthcoming deliverable D5.2.</p>

<p>This document attempts to represent a wide range of opinions in an inclusive way, to allow for different types of projects and programmes, where context-specific criteria can be set.The characteristics outlined below are based on views expressed by researchers, practitioners, public officials and the wider public. Our aim is to identify the characteristics that should be considered when setting such criteria (e.g. a funding scheme), and we call upon readers to determine which subset of these characteristics is relevant to their own specific context and aims. These characteristics build on (and refer to) the ECSA 10 principles of citizen science as a summary of best practie – and projects are expected to engage meaningfully with them. Where it is especially pertinent, we refer to them in the characteristics below. The rest of the document covers the characteristics of citizen science under five sections:</p>
<p>(1) core concepts;</p>
<p>(2) disciplinary aspects;</p>
<p>(3) leadership and participation;</p>
<p>(4) financial aspects; and</p>
<p>(5) data and knowledge.</p>
<p>Further explanation and background are provided in the ‘ECSA’s characteristics of citizen science: explanation notes’ document. </p>

<p>Here is the report (statistics and resources) of the BioBlitz that was held in Leopold park, Brussels, in 2019. “BioBlitz Leopold Park” is a follow-up of how biodiversity has changed –and hopefully increased– in a park located in the heart of Brussels, since the revegetation of the pond and set up of a flowery meadow in 2015. The first edition of the BioBlitz was organized in 2018, and the second edition was held on May 25 2019. After a short introduction on sampling techniques and insect ecology, citizens were invited to collect insects at the bank of the pond, in the meadow, and in other locations of the park. This participatory event aimed at raising citizens awareness about biodiversity in the city. The material to be used for the observation and identification of the specimens were provided by the Museum staff.</p>

<p>This resource aims to support citizen scientists in conducting a Train the Trainer workshop. The methodology within this<br>
resource details the critical components and considerations necessary and will aid practitioners in having the confidence<br>
and understanding to employ this training technique. This guidance is aimed primarily at contributory citizen science<br>
projects, and provides advice mainly to those who wish to host face-to-face training. Many of the principles can also be<br>
adapted to suit online trainings and the concept can be utilised for trainings across a broad range of subject<br>
areas.</p>

<p>The vision for the EU-Citizen.Science platform is to aid in the mainstreaming of citizen science, by building a sustainable platform as a learning space for citizen science in Europe for researchers, citizen science practitioners, policy makers, journalists, citizen scientists and other stakeholder groups. To achieve this aim, the project supports the development of ~20 training modules on a wide variety of CS-related subjects, aimed at this range of stakeholder groups. This Deliverable presents 24 training modules, 17 of which are from various Consortium partners and not the promised 3 but 10 modules developed by Cascading Grants awardees, drawing on the expertise from 10 institutions or individuals outside the Consortium. We describe the Moodle platform and the structure and topics of these training modules, the training and evaluation processes used in creating them, and the protocol created for future users of the eu-citizen.science platform who may choose to create their own training modules during the years 2022-2027. We also report how we built on our earlier work identifying specific training gaps in the field of CS, using a survey and a workshop to select the topics of the modules and widening the scope of topics and available languages with the call for Cascading Grants. Finally, this Deliverable concludes with somerecommendations for maintaining the sustainability of this platform, highlights potential topics for further training modules to be written in the future and provides some recommendations based on lessons learned for other CS Projects who may wish to provide CS training in the future.</p>

<p>The aim of the EU-Citizen.Science project is to build a sustainable platform as a mutual learning space for citizen science in Europe through an inclusive and transparent approach. To achieve this aim, the project supports the development of a framework to identify, collect and share good quality citizen science resources and best practices. This deliverable (D3.3) “Review of Framework Implementation” provides a review report on the implementation of the “Quality Criteria Framework for Resources” in practice, as developed in D3.1 “Framework describing criteria and rationale for sharing and selecting state of the art citizen science resources”, which described the set of criteria and actions for identifying good quality citizen science resources for the EU-Citizen.Science platform. The Quality Criteria Framework, which has been implemented for more than a year, is designed as an inclusive exercise that actively involves the community in decision-making. The framework ensures that a living and sustainable repository for high quality citizen science resources is made available on the platform for the community. After a careful review of the implementation of the criteria framework for resources, the EU-Citizen.Science consortium has come to the conclusion that the criteria and their moderation will continue to be implemented by ECSA, who will take ownership of the platform after the end of the EU-Citizen.Science project. </p>

<p>The EU-Citizen.Science Data Management Plan (DMP) is Deliverable 1.1 (D1.1) from the coordination and support action (CSA), EU-Citizen.Science, grant agreement (GA) 824580. This deliverable introduces the first version of the DMP. The DMP describes the way in which the EU-Citizen.Science consortium will manage the datasets that will emerge from the project, and how best practice in terms of metadata and archiving will be used to ensure that the data will be findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) for other potential users. Such users include researchers and practitioners in the field of citizen science, as well as any other interested party, in accordance with the Horizon 2020 Open Research Data pilot. Further, the DMP provides information about what datasets the consortium is aiming to preserve and in which format.</p>
<p><br>
The aim of this document is to lay out the preliminary DMP for the project. The purpose of the document is to put in place the definitions, explanations and details that will facilitate the potential reuse of the data that will be collected during the project. The DMP will allow this data to be in accordance with the Horizon 2020 Open Research Data pilot. The report is addressing the following issues:</p>
<ol>
<li>How EU-Citizen.Science will manage datasets</li>
<li>How data will be made findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable.</li>
