SUMMARY:Arctic CCS: Community and Citizen Science in the Far North - Abstract submission open
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:Organizers of Arctic CCS: Community &amp; Citizen Science (CCS) in the Far 
 North invite presentation abstracts for the virtual conference. This confer
 ence will be held online 5-7 October 2021.\nThis free, virtual conference w
 ill focus on sharing, networking, and discussing the various aspects of con
 ducting community and citizen science research in the Arctic. This conferen
 ce is in response to a growing community of Arctic researchers, Arctic comm
 unities, and Arctic visitors that are becoming more engaged in scientific r
 esearch. Conference organizers recognize that although there are many resou
 rces regarding community and citizen science available online, there are fe
 w venues to build a community around issues specific to the Arctic.\nThe pr
 imary goal of the conference is to provide an opportunity to share knowledg
 e and increase networking among researchers, community members, and other p
 ractitioners of community and citizen science in the Arctic. The focus is o
 n the circumpolar Arctic (e.g., it's not limited to one region, state, or c
 ountry). Organizers hope to start to build a "community of practice" that c
 an continue to share and learn from each other.\nThis conference will also 
 be an opportunity to:\n\n - Learn about the various community and citizen s
 cience projects in the Arctic,\n - Share the successes and challenges of pr
 ojects,\n - Discuss how the pandemic has impacted community and citizen sci
 ence, and\n - Discuss and focus on what is unique about community and citiz
 en science in the Arctic.Conference themes include:\n\n - Unique to the Far
  North - Opportunity for presenters to share what makes their project or ac
 tivity unique to the Arctic (community, data gaps, resources, communication
 , feedback, etc.);\n - Lessons Learned - Opportunity to present on what wor
 ked—or didn't work—in a project or activity, opportunity for others to lear
 n from you, opportunity to share program/project evaluation data, opportuni
 ty to share insights and experiences with science communication and partici
 pants, and opportunity to share any impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on you
 r project or activity;\n - All About the Data - Opportunity to share data a
 nd research gathered from CCS projects and opportunity to share Indigenous 
 data sovereignty challenges and solutions;\n - Just Sharing - Opportunity t
 o share projects or activities that might not be captured in other themes o
 r topics, opportunity to look for collaborators and share resources, and op
 portunity to share start-up projects and/or projects that haven't yet colle
 cted any research data.Extended abstract submission deadline: 23 August 202
