About Us
Mission
Ibercivis carries out and promotes research in many different areas of scientific knowledge at local, national and international levels.
Ibercivis provides technical support, dissemination and training so that anyone can participate in scientific research, according to their interests and always dynamic capabilities.
Activity
We share resources and expertise derived from our own citizen science activity.
We conduct our own research by developing our own citizen science projects in which we theorise, prototype, model, evaluate impact, measure, develop technology and publish results.
We promote the dissemination of the concept of «citizen science» through the development of the projects and through local, national and international events, exhibitions, publications, reports, awards, training and other activities.
