Policymakers Sample Clauses

Policymakers. Citizen science has grown in scale and scope, and is, not surprisingly, receiving increased attention from policymakers at local, regional, national, and international levels. A general positive attitude towards citizen science was also strongly felt in the focus group with policymakers and managers of CH institutions organised by CIVIC EPISTEMOLOGIES. It is obvious, that policies can play an important role in stimulating engagement and vice-versa. If the people care, so will the governments. In this way, a virtuous circle can be triggered between citizens and policy level. Political awareness might give the CH institutions more help from the governments who are expected to dedicate more time and resources to issues related to research in digital CH and humanities. 38 RICHES Project, xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/EUROPEAN-POLICY- BRIEF_Co-creation_ final.pdf The general feeling that seemed to stem from the discussions with policymakers was that citizen science is a highly valued method, which could be an immense source of data, but at that point was not necessarily accessible for the institutions to make use of. While it seemed easier to use citizens in a scientific research, it is still hard to clearly see a path to make use of such an encompassing resource in the CH setting.

Policymakers. X. Xxxxxx (2009) sketches three aspects of the intersection of citizen science and policy that policymakers need to consider58. Firstly, “the level of geography - from very local community (e.g. neighborhood scale), where local issues are frequently providing the motivation for citizen science activities, through city level, where activities are driven by coordination and collaboration between different groups, to regional level, where coordination effort becomes more formalised, then, to state/country level, and finally to continental scale.” Secondly, the awareness of different policy application areas – Within this context, Haklay differentiates between “citizen science used in support of public policies and policies that facilitate citizen science”. Thirdly, 58 Xxxxxx, X. (2009) ”Citizen science and Policy: A European Perspective”, Xxxxxx Center, Case Studies Report 4, p.4 -5
Policymakers. How the policy takes shape: Who names and frames the issues the policy will address? What becomes the object of regulation? This is broadly analogous to Xxxxxxxxx’x curriculum. Academics equate in my thesis to an influential set of policy makers. Academics (from an academic or professional vantage) name and frame the issues of concern, contribute to, and gather the professional curriculum.
