Abstract

This blog post explores the increasing significance of Citizen Science and participatory knowledge production in Türkiye. Drawing on discussions from the workshop “Interdisciplinary Pathways of Participatory Knowledge – Methods, Case Studies, and Arts”, it examines how collaborative research practices, digital infrastructures, and interdisciplinary perspectives are reshaping the relationship between science and society.

In March 2026, researchers, artists, and civil society actors gathered to discuss the evolving role of Citizen Science in Türkiye. Rather than treating science and society as separate domains, the presentations and discussions highlighted how knowledge production increasingly depends on collaboration, situated expertise, and civic engagement.
