REINFORCE (Research Infrastructures FOR citizens in Europe) project is hosting a high-level roundtable and interactive workshop entitled “How citizens can play an active role in the advance of ground-breaking research?” on 24 March, 15:00-16:30 CET. Speakers at the event will include Claudia Fabo Cartas (ECSA), who will open the discussion with an overview of policy objectives with regards to citizen science across Europe; Emmanuel Tsesmelis (CERN), who will provide an overview of the most important research infrastructures in Europe for particle physics; Marina Manzoni (European Commission), who will present the European Union’s perspective. In a highly interactive setting, Stavros Katsanevas, President of the council of the European Gravitational Observatory (EGO) and project coordinator of REINFORCE, will present REINFORCE’s approach to citizen science, in which citizens are provided with open data produced by the project demonstrators and contribute in performing inquiries on scientific research and real-world applications and Francesco Mureddu, director at the Lisbon Council, will introduce the Policy roadmap on research infrastructures for citizen science in Europe.
