Biodiversity Hotspots Questions
The role of citizen science in biodiversity hotspot conservation is to engage and involve the general public in scientific research and data collection related to biodiversity. Citizen scientists contribute to the monitoring and documentation of species, habitats, and ecosystems within biodiversity hotspots. Their participation helps to increase the amount and quality of data available for conservation efforts, as well as raise awareness and understanding of the importance of biodiversity conservation among the public. Citizen science also promotes collaboration between scientists, conservation organizations, and local communities, leading to more effective conservation strategies and actions.
