Citizen science, the collaboration between scientists and the public to address scientific questions, has emerged as a powerful tool for biodiversity conservation. These initiatives are contributing to biodiversity conservation in the CEE region by empowering citizens to participate in scientific research, expanding the reach of biodiversity monitoring, providing valuable data for conservation decision-making, and raising public awareness about environmental issues.
Listed as an endangered species on the IUCN Red List, there is a significant decline in populations of the European Ground Squirrel in almost its entire range in Central and South-East Europe.
