Deliverable 4.5 Report on Policymaker Engagement and Awareness-Raising Activities (2021 update)

The EU-Citizen.Science project will create a platform to raise awareness of citizen science, and facilitate engagement with citizen science projects. This document is an updated version of deliverable 4.2, which offered guidelines and recommendations for raising awareness of citizen science activities and projects among a variety of stakeholders. Through identification of existing projects and analysis of best practices, this report aims to establish a framework for increasing awareness in existing and new projects. A list of recommendations for awareness-raising among stakeholders is formulated based on existing literature. These recommendations are then allocated to the identified groups of stakeholders to suggest the most appropriate ways to raise awareness among different audiences.
