As a citizen science project, we continuously aim to share our findings and knowledge with the wider society. We inform citizens about open doubts relating to water quality and bacterial composition of the river that fuels our city’s life as well as to train people from all backgrounds on using cutting-edge sequencing technology. Our aim is to engage and empower communities around the world to create their own inexpensive and mobile environmental monitoring framework in order to raise awareness of pollution as well as to secure access to safe freshwater resources in the long term.
