About INCENTIVE
Bridging society with science through Citizen Science Hubs for a more sustainable tomorrow
INCENTIVE mobilises citizens and stakeholders to become agents of scientific change through their direct participation. At the same time, the participating institutes and universities are guided to open their doors to citizens and equip them with the necessary tools for enhanced scientific skills. Our ambition is to create a new generation of citizen scientists and a new institutional European paradigm that bridges science with society
Citizen Science Hubs will be established in four EU Universities:
University of Twente (the Netherlands)
Autonomous University of Barcelona (Spain)
Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (Greece)
Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (Lithuania)
