On 5 and 6 June, 2025, CitSciHelvetia'25 will take place under the motto "Citizen science in action. Collaborations between civil society and academia". The venue for the third Swiss Citizen Science Conference is the University of Lausanne. Contributions can be submitted until the end of November.
It is a fundamental trend: citizen and participatory science projects are on the rise. Though this dynamic is encouraging, partnerships between civil society and academia require special care and skills, as well as favorable institutional conditions that need to be reinforced. And it is precisely these challenges of cooperation that the conference will focus on.
What are the issues facing civil society and academia in citizen and participatory science projects? The conference aims to draw up a collective assessment of such challenges along six themes.
Are you a member of an NGO, an association, a foundation, a citizens' collective or a public institution? Are you a researcher involved in supporting, or facilitating citizen and participatory science? Are you new to the field or preparing to take action?
You are all invited to participate in the conference and submit a contribution on the challenges of cooperation between civil society and the academic world. There are three contribution formats: Presentations, workshops and posters. Proposals may be submitted in French, German or English.
Submission deadline: 30 November 2024
Committee replies: 28 February 2025
Conference: 5 and 6 June 2025
The Conference is initiated by the Science et Cité Foundation and supported by the Swiss Academies of Science and University of Lausanne and is organized by the ColLaboratoire (UNIL's collaborative and participatory action research unit).
