What better way to get young people excited by science than to have them collect field data that can be used by researchers around the world!

NatureWatch Network

NatureWatch is a suite of community-based "citizen science" monitoring programmes including FrogWatch, WormWatch, IceWatch and PlantWatch.

Through these programmes, Environment Canada collects national information on indicators of ecosystem health.

New "citizen science" programmes will soon be available on lichens, tree health and benthic macroinvertebrates.
