About
My PhD
My PhD aims to understand how technology can be better incorporated into citizen science and community-based projects in India to ensure robust biodiversity monitoring whilst promoting positive effects and minimising negative effects on human well-being
Objectives
1: To critically review and assess the extent of human well-being considerations and the social implications of digital technology adoption in wildlife-oriented citizen science projects.
2: To evaluate the extent to which and how community and individual well-being are considered alongside biodiversity outcomes in technology-based citizen projects in India
​
3: To develop guidelines for citizen scientists to apply digital technologies in a meaningful way in community-based projects that promote both well-being and biodiversity outcomes.
