New Youth for Arctic Nature project launched in Snæfellsnes

14/6/2023

0 Comments

 
Youth for Arctic Nature is coordinating a citizen science project in Snæfellsnes, western Iceland. This initiative was created in partnership with the NorReg project and Snæfellsnes Regional Park. Participants will be collecting wildlife monitoring data and we will be interviewing visitors after the activity to learn more about their experiences. The wildlife monitoring data that we are collecting will be used for:  
  • Scientific research on some targeted species monitored
  • Environmental education and training to help youth and others who want to learn more about wildlife monitoring
  • Connecting with local schools and local stakeholders in Snæfellsnes to establish long-term monitoring projects
