This is the first in a series of short discussion papers produced by the Institute for Community Studies to share learnings and reflections from the UKRI-funded Citizen Science Collaboration Grants.

This paper focusses on the experience of doing ‘citizen science’. This involves exploring what it means and feels like to be involved in ‘citizen science’ from a range of perspectives. The paper explores cross-cutting themes from the programme, alongside stories from CSCG projects, sharing reflections and questions to support further inquiry.
