Titre: " Les sciences citoyennes en Suisse : Analyse contextuelle, Recommandations et Roadmap"
Responsabilité et coordination: Science et Cité / Schweiz forscht - Tiina Stämpfli & Jeanne Six
Collaboration: Swiss Expert Group for Citizen Science , réseau Suisse des sciences citoyennes "tous scientifiques"
Produits: Analyse contextuelle (Status quo), Recommandations et mesures (Roadmap)
Dans le cadre de l’initiative Citizen Science des académies suisses 2021-24 (ICSA+), le comité de direction des académies suisses a mandaté Science et Cité pour l’établissement d’une roadmap basée sur un status quo sur les sciences citoyennes en Suisse. Le but est d’évaluer les documents existants, besoins, lacunes et potentiels de la communauté des sciences citoyennes suisse et des science citoyene en suisse. Le projet « Les sciences citoyennes en Suisse: analyse contextuelle, recommandations et roadmap » débutera en janvier 2022 et sera mené par Science et Cité, accompagné du "Swiss Expert Group for Citizen Science" mis sur pied à cet effet. Le réseau suisse de sciences citoyennes sera également impliqué dans ce processus.
Les rapports et informations sur tout le processus seront fréquemment publiés ici (en Anglais).
La description du projet et les tâches du groupe de travail est disponible ici (en Anglais).

The project makes it possible to approach Citizen Science on a national level for the first time and I find it important and exciting to value different experiences, expertise and expectations and to learn together in order to further develop the landscape.

This project gives the opportunity to foster the potential and the visibility of CS. I am looking forward to co-creating promising and sustainable solutions to strengthen Citizen Science in Switzerland.

The concepts of Citizen Science can help science become truly transformative – actively engaging in and catalyzing societal change. To leverage this potential, we need to reflect critically on strengths and challenges associated with the different forms of Citizen Science – this is what we will do in this project for the context of Switzerland.
The cooperation of citizen scientists and scientists is a win-win situation. In urban ecology, more data can be collected, also in areas that are not accessible to scientists. In return, citizen scientists receive information about their environment and contribute to science. Together, scientists and volunteers work to raise awareness of urban ecology issues and promote urban nature.

Citizen Science in Switzerland has many different faces and facettes. It is important to see this diversity as a strength, not as a weakness. The project does exactly that: Value different experiences and expertise, put them in relation to each other and strengthen them altogether.

Citizen science is an important issue for the democratization of research for universities and society. It is one of the ways to better respond to the needs of social actors to participate in the production of knowledge, and to contribute to the orientation of scientific work.

In this era of profound transformations, I believe Citizen Science can significantly help the global effort toward a more sustainable world. Switzerland is in a unique position to trailblaze meaningful public engagement, and radically democratize science both inside and outside academia.
Citizen Science is an increasingly important complement to basic research. It has the potential to improve openness for new issues and research methods. In addition, the stronger connection between scientists and citizens ensures a better consideration of current relevant societal problems.

Citizen Science is very valuable to complement traditional research approaches and thus to expand our horizon by the joining forces of society and the sciences.

Citizen science allows us to acquire new knowledge and to develop concrete solutions that are rooted in the reality of the people concerned and that meet real needs.

Giving society the opportunity to contribute to science is key to raising awareness of how science works and building trusting relationships. It also helps science to include non-certified expertise that is so important for addressing complex societal challenges.
