Community of practice: Piloting a citizen science approach for rural walkability in Tasmania

In this community of practice session, guest presenters Dr Kim Jose and Kate Garvey discussed how citizen science was used to investigate walkability in rural towns in Tasmania and reflected on the implications for researchers, policy makers and communities.

The Community of Practice for Citizen Science in Prevention brings together people from research, policy, practice, and community settings to share knowledge, ideas, and resources to support the design, delivery and evaluation of citizen science in prevention.
