Programme

The first part of the workshop will be dedicated to the presentation of participatory research initiatives. It will focus more specifically on the methodologies employed in the production, use and validation of citizen data. The second part will focus on social science research that questions the role of these methodologies in the relationship between exposed populations and experts, and in the broader issues of health and environmental justice.
