UNLOCK NATURE - RATE MY VIEW
UNLOCK NATURE
UNLOCK NATURE: NATURE LIBÉRÉE is a digital citizen science project that is open to everyone in Mauritius. It explores how recent events such as Covid-19 and the Wakashio Oil Spill have affected natural landscapes and asks, have these changes been positive or negative?
LANDSCAPE CONNECT APP
To achieve this, two free easy to use mobile phone applications and an online survey are being used to capture as many people’s photos and thoughts as possible. Rate My View and the Mauritius Coastal Impact Survey are for individuals to use. For Landscape Connect we are encouraging use by families as well as individuals.
Follow the links below to access the apps and survey.
