Case studies of citizen science and Storytelling in Hungary
Bea Pántya is an animator and has recently been working together with ESSRG on training videos, using animated techniques. She shares with us her views on why animation is a great way to share stories.

Passer-by Researcher:
‘Járókelőkutató’ (Passer-by Researcher) is a co-created citizen science digital tool, grown out of a fruitful collaboration between ESSRG and ‘Járókelő’ (Passer-by) Public Benefit Association. The current project design of Járókelőkutató preceded the transformation of the tool into a genuine citizen science project.
2. HerStory:
HerStory, an activist-researcher bottom-up collective, grew out of the Solidarity Food Working Group (Élelem Munkacsoport) of the Solidarity Action Group (Szolidáris Akció Csoport) in which ESSRG has actively been involved over the past year.
3. Citizen Science in researching biodiversity:
Citizen science is a relatively new way of knowledge co-creation, where professional scientists and enthusiastic citizens collaboratively search for answers. While it certainly presents challenges, it also provides a great opportunity for both parties to engage science and nature together, and ultimately, can result in transformative societal changes. This video showcases the different levels of participation available, and the advantages of citizen science by illustrating it with a compelling and intimate visual journey through the seas to the backyard.
