CROWD4SDG: Citizen Science for Monitoring Climate Impacts and Achieving Climate Resilience

In 2015, the United Nations launched 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) to be reached via 169 targets and to be measured with 232 indicators. However, collecting such data can be challenging. The EU-funded CROWD4SDG project aims to analyse how citizen science (CS) can be used to measure progresses to achieve the SDGs. Within this scope, the project will explore how CS can monitor the impacts of extreme climate events and strengthen the resilience of communities within the framework of climate-related disasters. The project's methodology will be based on artificial intelligence and machine learning as well as on the use of social media and other non-traditional data sources.
