ScienceUs | Open Call
The ScienceUs project is launching an open call to scale up and connect outstanding Citizen Science projects in different research and technological areas relevant to the EU mission “Adaptation to climate change”.
ScienceUs proposes a three-phase support program (Seed – Flourish – Harvest phases) with direct funding and support services to a group of outstanding Citizen Science initiatives that have the potential to be upscaled to other EU regions.
The deadline is on January 6, 2025, 5 pm (seed phase).
Throughout these phases, ScienceUs will assist the citizen science projects by:
1) Defining a transnational citizen science campaign and upscaling plan,
2) Implementing the transnational campaign plan by facilitating the matchmaking between EU citizen science initiatives and the involvement of quadruple helix actors in the projects,
3) Facilitating that these supported Citizen Science projects transfer the best practices and lessons learned to other initiatives and projects and quadruple helix actors (mainly policymakers), generating a knowledge spillover effect.
This Open Call will select 25 projects to participate in the program’s first phase (Seed phase).
All ongoing citizen science initiatives related to climate change adaptation run by an EU legal entity are eligible to apply.
