Abstract
This paper explored the effect of the different open cross-university and public knowledge building activities on participants’ active citizenship competencies. A survey was conducted with the participants from 7 activities in higher education context in the INOS project. The results report that active citizenship competences could be better developed in cross-academia and public citizen engagement activities that target collaborative knowledge building and data management rather than in more individual crowdsourcing activities. The results indicate that the politico-legal competencies were the most difficult to develop through different activities and they require more specific design concerns in the future citizen science activities.
