Citizen science sees community volunteers work with EPA on scientific projects. Volunteers collect and study scientific data, and may co-design projects.
Why citizen science benefits the community and the environment
Citizen science helps the community and EPA build a shared understanding of environmental issues. The partnership program aims to:
- provide high quality applied science outcomes for Victorians
- help community play a meaningful role in environmental science and decision making
- foster advances in science through new technology and new ways to deal with environmental issues.
