Conference

The Austrian Citizen Science Conference is the main event of the year for the citizen science community in Austria and beyond.

Since 2015 the conference has been organized on an annual basis, each year by a different host institution in close collaboration with Österreich forscht. By collaborating with local host institutions, the conference has been taking place in many different regions of Austria, which makes it possible to  connect with the local community. Since 2017 the conference has been divided in two parts. The first two days consist of a scientific programm with oral presentations, workshops and posters and the third day is a public day, where citizen scientists and the general public are invited to the conference to discover new projects and to get to know project coordinators.

You can find detailed information, and pictures of each conference in the links below in German. Conference proceedings containing extended abstracts from selected contributions are available in English since 2016.
