Don’t miss the Citizen Science Day workshop at the CSA Conference!

There’s still time to register for the Citizen Science Association Conference (5/17-5/20 in Minneapolis, MN)! The conference will start on May 17 with a series of workshops and special events to dive deep into relevant topics.

As a proud cofounder of Citizen Science Day, SciStarter is pleased to invite you to join the Citizen Science Day task force workshop to plan for the sustained future of this event. The task force is led by Catherine Hoffman (SciStarter), Lila Higgins (Natural History Museum of Los Angeles), and Alison Young (California Academy of Sciences).

Goals include:

1. To solicit community feedback on the recurring date for Citizen Science Day.

2. To review Citizen Science Day 2016 and 2017 and to generate feedback for the planning of Citizen Science Day 2018.

3. To discuss the challenges and opportunities for Citizen Science Day events and to strategize future resources needed to overcome these challenges and maximize opportunities.

4. Solicit feedback on planning a wide-scale, annual evaluation plan for Citizen Science Day.

Register for the workshop in advance while you are signing up for the conference. We look forward to planning the future of this great event with you!

This will be the second Citizen Science Association conference and an estimated  1,000 participants are expected to convene from all over the world.  Join the Citizen Science Association for reduced registration fees.

This is part of a series of posts about the Citizen Science Association Conference.
