公民科学是科学民主化和促进普遍和公平获取科学数据和信息目标的重要工具。公民科学团体产生的数据已成为科学家、应用用户和追求《2030年可持续发展议程》的人们日益重要的数据来源。公民科学数据广泛用于生物多样性和污染研究；联合国业务机构正在将众包数据用于人道主义活动；公民科学家正在提供与监测可持续发展目标（sdg）相关的数据。本文提供了一个国际科学理事会（ISC）的视角，以支持2030年议程的公民科学数据生成活动，并通过介绍由ISC赞助的任务小组开展的研究结果，为科学和社会的利益提供了公民科学界数据管理实践所需的改进。
Citizen science is an important vehicle for democratizing science and promoting the goal of universal and equitable access to scientific data and information. Data generated by citizen science groups have become an increasingly important source for scientists, applied users and those pursuing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Citizen science data are used extensively in studies of biodiversity and pollution; crowdsourced data are being used by UN operational agencies for humanitarian activities; and citizen scientists are providing data relevant to monitoring the sustainable development goals (SDGs). This article provides an International Science Council (ISC) perspective on citizen science data generating activities in support of the 2030 Agenda and on needed improvements to the citizen science community's data stewardship practices for the benefit of science and society by presenting results of research undertaken by an ISC-sponsored Task Group.
