In the paper, the Consortium argues how citizen engagement in Citizen Science (CS) involves the active participation of individuals in scientific research, policy development, and program implementation. Nonetheless, this involvement requires technological capacity, role clarity, and effective communication for stakeholders to be involved in organizing, planning, decision-making, activity implementation, and evaluation. The authors discuss how the combination of user engagement in data science and the power of AI algorithms presents opportunities for crowd-sourced data science and collective intelligence to address significant global challenges like poverty, diseases, famines, and developmental issues.
