Case studies of Citizen science applications for social good
Citizens’ engagement and motivation
Innovative solutions supporting CS and social good (e.g., Virtual Reality, Augmented
reality, smart sensors)
Data collection, accuracy, and trustworthiness
Ethics and privacy issues
Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Citizen Science
