Citizen science is involving the public in collecting and analysing scientific data and discovering new scientific knowledge. Approachable and inclusive, it is an excellent option for people looking for ways to get involved and make a difference, and there has never been a better time than now.

Exploring Nature through Citizen Science introduces citizen science and showcases its benefits, with a focus on Australia, including urban environments. The book explores the various types of projects available, explaining how the data is used to create real-world impact and offering practical guidance on what photographs to take and which data to record for different groups of organisms. Example projects from across Australia range from activities you can do in your home to active data collection in more remote areas, making it easier than ever for people to get involved in citizen science.

With its friendly, accessible approach and many photographs, this book serves as a must-have guide for anyone looking to understand how best to get involved in citizen science in Australia.
