In Pollen Watch we explore pollen and climate change from different perspectives!
In a series of events we aim to open a dialogue on these topics and the power of citizen science to tackle current and future issues.
First up is a 2 hour citizen science workshop on April 21st 2026.
Join us on a journey through the approach of citizen science! Learn what it’s all about and come up with your first ideas on where it could be used.
In the workshop we will introduce the cornerstones of citizen science and show you how a citizen science project can be established. In small teams you will get to discuss your own ideas on what kind of project citizen science is useful for.
Register here now. The workshop is free of cost.
