Summary
Citizen science plays an important role in engaging the public with research that can help solve conservation problems. In particular, birds are barometers of environmental health. This project will build the expertise of African scientists and managers to analyse the rich source of bird data being collected by citizen scientists so it can be shared and used it to conserve vulnerable species and habitats.
