AquaCoLab - Burgos

The overall objective of the project is:

To implement a citizen participation methodology for monitoring the quality of freshwater systems through collaborative laboratories “CoLabs” (general society, associations, town councils, schools, universities, etc.) using different citizen science platforms and instruments, which will enable:

1. Obtain a collaborative map of the environmental quality of freshwater systems in the province of Burgos.

2. Increase scientific culture by helping to improve knowledge, environmental assessment, and responsible innovation in freshwater systems.

3. Promote and improve the active participation of society in the study and care of these ecosystems and knowledge about compliance with the European Water Framework Directive.
