—–<\/p>\n

Crowdsourcing is an increasingly popular concept, and crowdsourcing projects appear in many areas. As part of the 2016 Engage program, we will be running a panel session around the question of how crowdsourcing can be used for outreach and public engagement.<\/p>\n

When<\/strong>: 4 March, 2-4pm
\nWhere<\/strong>: Thames Suite, IT Services, 13 Banbury Rd<\/p>\n

In the session, we will be hearing about a range of crowdsourcing projects, from small-scale projects run by a single individul to large projects involving a team of researchers and thousands of contributors. We will explore how projects have engaged with their audiences and what impact that has had. There will be time for discussion and opportunity to share thoughts and experiences, both in the session and over coffee afterwards.<\/p>\n
