the way we produce goods and provide services as a society is changing. we are not just consumers anymore – we create videos, music, art, software, hardware and much more, because the digital era has empowered us to do so. it’s easier than ever before to be a producer.

so why don't we apply this model to how we do science too?

crowdcrafting was born at a hackathon in cape town, south africa in 2011. it is a free and open source alternative to existing citizen science platforms. in partnership with our key collaborators, such as cern, united nations (unitar) and the university of geneva, we have reached out to and inspired many people to get involved with science. and this is how we have achieved our goal of transforming citizens from scientific consumers to scientific producers.
