Our study visit in Vienna in the framework of the CORYA Project started at OEAD – Center for Citizen Science, where 6 young researchers and 3 youth workers from Albania were introduced to the concept of citizen science by Elisabeth Schauerman (Project Manager, Public Science at OEAD).

📌 The session emphasized how collaborative research involving communities can produce meaningful and actionable outcomes.

📌 The workshop that followed offered a deeper understanding of how to design and implement projects that engage citizens in meaningful ways.

📌 This visit underscored the importance of collaboration between researchers and communities and provided us with valuable insights to apply in Albania.

A heartfelt thank you to OeAD-GmbH – Agentur für Bildung und Internationalisierung and Mrs. Schauerman for the warm reception and the inspiring session! 🤗
