Abstract

This report sets out principles for including aspects of, or, where appropriate, full co-design in citizen science projects. It draws on research carried out during CaSTCo, including case studies (Soil SmARt and River Guardians), interviews with scientists, stakeholders and citizen scientists, and a review of existing literature. Together, these sources inform 12 key principles for guiding co-design.
