Our new event series
Once a month, we devote ourselves to exciting topics and projects relating to Citizen Science over lunch. In a short input of approx. 30 minutes, a project introduces itself, gives insights behind the scenes and shows what worked well in the project and where there were stumbling blocks. Afterwards, there will be enough time for questions, discussions and exchanges. Delicious sandwiches are also provided. Register now!

Welcome to Citizen Science Zurich
Citizen Science Zurich is a joint initiative by the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich, supported by the Mercator Foundation Switzerland. We strive for an open, diverse and inclusive science, where research is done with the public and for the public. Therefore, we want to inspire and support people to engage in different forms of participatory research.
