Community

Earthwatch works collaboratively with community groups, social enterprises and non-government organisations (NGOs) to bridge the gaps between science, community and nature. 

We are citizen science program development experts

With over 50 years of global experience under our belt, we are experts in developing and implementing citizen science projects. Accessible for all ages and backgrounds, we develop scientifically robust programs which bring our citizens closer to nature, where no formal training is required. 

Our programs adhere to the strictest health and safety standards to keep our participants safe. We can co-create a citizen science program with you that aligns your goals and ours:  

  • Connecting with nature 
  • Community 
  • Knowledge creation, 
  • Scientific literacy 
  • Field research 
  • Education 
  • Empowering behaviour change 
  • Positive environmental action 
  • Environmental stewardship, and 
  • Sustainable living 

Community Partnerships

We have worked with a number of community groups to deliver sustainability programs.
