Citizen Science has been around for a long time. It has allowed vast amounts of data to be collected and analysed within a relatively short period by getting members of the public to participate in scientific research. 

This research is invaluable as it helps to inform natural resource management, increase environmental protection and inform policy and decision making.  It also benefits individuals as they can engage in research and provide public input. 

There are numerous citizen science opportunities for landholders to get involved in, whether it be about frogs, tree hollows, scats, or even ferals - there is something for everyone.

Join us as we speak with three motivated individuals working in this space across diverse topics and landscapes, from water to earth to sky.
