Citizen Scientist Programme

Citizen Scientist Programme is designed to invite members of the public to participate in our nature conservation scientific research! The programme engages local ecologists and scientists to train up amateur wildlife observers and students to assist in systematic ecological surveys and studies. Ecological data such as reptiles, freshwater fish, aquatic and terrestrial insects will be collected.
