This project will organize and host a set of workshops to identify the parameters and sub-elements for a Convergence Accelerator track enhancing community resilience using citizen-science and community-science. The core of this effort is to engage society and scientists together to envision how best to links discoveries to solutions that matter for real communities’ resilience. This effort will bring scientists and non-scientists together, focusing especially on the needs and concerns of historically neglected or marginalized groups, to define community-science approaches that lead to a more just and sustainable future. The proposed track is expected to identify pilot efforts that can facilitate cultural and systemic change that can help the sciences be more inclusive, relevant, and responsive to community needs. These insights, if implemented in a track, could have transformative impacts on scientific engagement with communities – dramatically changing how scientists and scientific institutions engage and how the public views science. This multimodal workshop effort plans to include online ideation, inspirational micro-presentations, interactive virtual workshops, and in-person synthesis. A particular focus will be on building bridges between traditional scientific approaches and other ways of knowing more prevalent among non-scientists. Bringing these approaches together is expected to improve scientific literacy, build trust in science, and expand the conception of what counts as science. This effort will especially focus on communities that have been historically neglected or marginalized groups, ensuring that future community-science and citizen science efforts that develop from this workshop can also enhance equity and justice.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将组织和主办一系列研讨会，以确定融合加速器轨道的参数和子要素，利用公民科学和社区科学增强社区复原力。这一努力的核心是让社会和科学家共同设想如何最好地将发现与对真实的社区复原力至关重要的解决方案联系起来。这项工作将使科学家和非科学家聚集在一起，特别关注历史上被忽视或边缘化群体的需求和关切，以确定社区科学方法，从而实现更公正和可持续的未来。拟议的轨道预计将确定试点工作，可以促进文化和系统的变化，可以帮助科学更具包容性，相关性和响应社区的需求。这些见解，如果在一个轨道上实施，可能会对科学与社区的参与产生变革性的影响-大大改变科学家和科学机构的参与方式以及公众如何看待科学。这种多模式研讨会的努力计划包括在线构思，鼓舞人心的微型演示，互动虚拟研讨会和面对面的合成。一个特别的重点是在传统的科学方法和非科学家中更普遍的其他知识方法之间建立桥梁。将这些方法结合在一起有望提高科学素养，建立对科学的信任，并扩大什么是科学的概念。这项工作将特别关注历史上被忽视或边缘化的社区，确保未来的社区科学和公民科学工作，从这次研讨会发展也可以加强公平和正义。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
