‼️A New Study from @NCStateCNR Researchers‼️:
Do you identify as a Black LGBTQIA+ person in the United States? Do you participate in iNaturalist, eBird, HerpMapper, volunteer water quality monitoring, the GLOBE apps, or ANY participatory science project (citizen science/community science) where you go OUTDOORS to collect and share data about your environment?
If so, are you interested in exploring your experiences in the participatory sciences? Do you want to share your experiences with others like you to help create safe and improved measures for protecting and affirming Black LGBTQIA+ individuals in the field? Are you interested in learning a technique that could empower actionable change in participatory science projects or other social justice initiatives? Researchers from North Carolina State University are inviting Black LGBTQIA+ individuals engaged in the participatory sciences to write about, discuss, analyze, and co-produce understandings of their individual experiences and how that links to the collective.
