FTI-Citizen-Science

Funding info


 

The FTI Citizen Science funding initiative in Lower Austria supports projects in which citizens conduct research together with universities and research institutions. They actively contribute their knowledge and help shape research - from the idea to its realisation. The aim is to anchor science more firmly in society and jointly develop solutions for current challenges. Such projects promote dialogue between science and the public, stimulate new ways of thinking and make research more tangible.
