Citizens as Sensors (The Clean Water Experiment)

Project information

In this project, over 200 Amsterdammers measured the quality of surface water in Amsterdam, using a water box for a number of small experiments that could be conducted independently. The project monitored the water quality throughout Amsterdam, and gaged the attitude of Amsterdam citizens to surface water. As a result, most participants increased their knowledge and some changed their use of Amsterdam surface water.
