Citizen Science for Water Conference
The Citizen Science for Water 2025 Conference took place at the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft). Thank you to everyone who helped make it a success.
For this inaugural CS4Water conference, we will focus on freshwater systems, diving into engaging workshop sessions, exploring innovative research, and connecting international water and citizen science experts. The conference will focus on the crucial role citizen science plays within water resource monitoring, management and governance as well as community-led actions. The conference will bring together experienced citizen science practitioners and newcomers from both the Global North and Global South who are interested in exploring how citizen science can contribute to water management.
The CS4Water conference aims to
Promote collaborative research and knowledge sharing, fostering collaboration among an international community of scientists, practitioners, and citizens and communities to advance cooperative freshwater monitoring and management.
Empower communities and institutions, boosting discourse surrounding decision-making, communication, and governance in the water commons to help restore, design, and ensure resilient freshwater bodies, groundwater, wetlands and deltas for the future of people and planet.
Advance sustainable solutions to the freshwater crises, co-exploring innovative, sustainable, citizen science-driven strategies for achieving the SDGs, especially in the Global South, and safeguarding water into the future.
