Description

The MICS project [mics.tools] has developed a state-of-the-art tool for assessing citizen science’s impact. The free-to-use, open-access platform is available to anyone looking to improve their impact assessment. MICS uses 200 variables to determine the impact of a citizen-science project in five areas: society, the environment, the economy, governance, and science and technology. Five case studies explore how citizen scientists work together to monitor nature-based solutions and protect the environment. AI technology has been developed to help analyse the 200 variables.

Notes

This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 824711.
