OTTERS - Občanská věda pro správu vodních zdrojů

Popis

The OTTERS project is about encouraging positive and effective change in how we care for our oceans and freshwater through citizen science. A key focus is working together to design Citizen Science campaigns that empower people to take action in protecting our water resources. OTTERS focuses on three key objectives: protecting and restoring ecosystems, eliminating pollution, and promoting a sustainable blue economy.

OTTERS has developed three examples of Co-Created Toolkits. These are available for anyone who’s interested and can help organize a co-creation session and launch a campaign to inspire a deeper connection and responsibility toward water stewardship. 

The toolkits provide teachers and students with resources to organize campaigns and participate in Citizen Science projects. In these projects, the public collaborates with professional scientists on activities like data collection, analysis, and reporting. Citizen Science aims to solve real-world problems, expand scientific knowledge, and engage participants in the scientific process through hands-on learning.
