[enviroCar-discuss] Fwd: Vision and mission, Citizen Science Association

Hi enviroCar community!

The Citizen Science 2015 conference will take plase in San Jose,
California: http://citizenscienceassociation.org/conference/

I think the open enviroCar platform would be a very interesting
contribution to such a meeting and just wanted to share the date in case
somebody with ties to enviroCar is in that area at that time. The will
be a "data management & visualisation" thread.

Best regards,
Daniel

      Dear Daniel,


Membership matters!

*Citizen Science Association
<http://citizenscienceassociation.us3.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=2cdc505f787da2ef3dc650702&id=7e9ebd4160&e=2effbcbfe0>*
members who joined before 15 March 2014 voted to determine the
association's vision and mission statements. The results are now in...


      Results of 15 Feb - 15 March 2014 voting by CSA members on
      proposed vision and mission statements

*A. A world where people understand, value, and participate in citizen
science*
B. A global community of practice for citizen science
C. No response



       
*A. Advance citizen science through communication, coordination, and
education*
B. Foster communication, collaboration, and professional development in
citizen science
C. No response


There were clear, almost two-to-one choices in each case. There were
also hundreds of useful suggestions as to how each statement might be
improved.

*For now,* the CSA is adopting the vision and mission statements as
decided by this vote. This will allow the CSA to establish an identity
for seeking additional members and additional support.

*Moving forward*, all suggestions are being reviewed and synthesized by
committee members to see if alternative statements emerge. The
longer-term identity - and leadership - of the CSA will be established
by members through voting in February 2015 (more details below).
