EUCITSCI, SUMMARY: Making dreams come true> How can we make our dreams come true, while also supporting ECSA to achieve its vision and mission? How to effectively bring the citizen science community to the platform and make them benefit from it? by Andrea Troncoso https://padlet.com/amountainwithwings/oqqoxi1e1y5mw7xl Think about concrete benefits for different users, e.g. get volunteers for project initiators; other benefits for citizen scientists.
