Very interesting site from Sciencewise ERC on public engagement and citizen science relating to environment and landscapes - Public engagement on landscape & ecosystem futures in England, Scotland and Wales /...
.../
This is from the ScienceWise Expert Resource Centre (a UK government initiative for dialogue on science in society). Of particular interest is that this focuses on citizen science in the sense of a direct engagement of the public in decisions and interpretation of science in a policy framework - in contrast to the use of citizen science to mean public participation in field monitoring and so forth. This particular initiative also connects to the UK National Ecosystem Assessment which will be released in the early part of 2011.
