OSDG Community Platform: a citizen science initiative towards the development goals
The paper is part of the Proceedings of the 26th International Conference on Science and Technology Indicators (STI 2022).
The results obtained in this exploratory work evidence that some goals have a common understanding by the volunteers, having a positive polarity among all the goals.
Future studies on the topic might be complemented by means of qualitative research methods to uncover the underlined motivations (and previous knowledge) on the goals by the participants. Thus, the combination of this data with results from classifications from databasets should also be considered. Such combination of methods will enable more advanced insights on the relationship between the understanding from a bottom approach (as done in this study) and other focus, thus providing a more holistic perspective on how research can complement and support the consecution of Agenda 2030.
