¿Tiene curiosidad por saber cómo hacer ciencia comunitaria en su país?
Thriving Earth Exchange is committed to helping community science flourish around the globe. We have trained staff at community-serving organizations such as Hano Wene (Indonesia) and South Trelawney Environmental Agency (Jamaica) in our community science approaches. We continued to support community science initiatives such as Future Earth Australia initiative in Tallangatta (Melbourne, Victoria) and helped The Association of Young Geologists and Environmentalists of Senegal (AJGES) start planning/exploring a project on desalinization of agriculture in the Fatick region. And in collaboration with the National Academies of Science and USAID’s Partnerships in Enhanced Educational Research (PEER) program, we developed and hosted two webinars for Cambodian researchers on integrating community science principles into their work with communities, which informed the final grant application process.
