Citizen Science Award 2024: Submission deadline extended!

For the tenth time, the OeAD, on behalf of the BMBWF, invites citizen science and open innovation projects led by Austrian institutions to participate in the Citizen Science Award. Within the framework of this research competition, pupils, youth groups, families and all interested parties can once again participate in research on selected projects from 1 April to 31 July 2024. The most committed citizen scientists will be honoured at a ceremony in autumn 2024.

The Citizen Science Award is open to projects from all fields of research: In addition to projects from the natural sciences and technology, projects from the social sciences and humanities are particularly welcome to participate!

Registration is possible via an online form. The submission deadline was extended until Monday, 20 November 2023.

The BMBWF and the OeAD will then select the projects for participating in the Citizen Science Award 2024. The aim is to offer as diverse a range of scientific projects as possible, which allow for different forms of engagement. The selected projects will be notified at the beginning of December 2024.
