Naturewatch is one of New Zealand’s first and remains the largest Citizen Science project. Curious people around the country take photographs of flora and fauna and upload it onto the site, where the information is shared. You don't have to have a degree to be part of Naturewatch, just a camera or smart phone and some time to spare.
Lynn Freeman went to a recent Naturewatch workshop and met two of the project’s key people, Colin Meurk and Jon Sullivan.
