At the Australian Museum, citizen science has grown from a niche concept into a vibrant, community-driven force.
Managing the Centre for Citizen Science, Paul Flemons oversees three major programs that have transformed how the public engages with scientific research.
Frog ID is perhaps the most familiar, inviting thousands to record and monitor frogs across Australia.
DigiVol allows volunteers to digitize invaluable collections from institutions worldwide, including natural history, cultural artifacts, and council libraries, from the comfort of their homes.
Australasian Fishes collects data on fish distributions, helping to track environmental changes and shifts in ocean temperatures.
