Further details about this year’s City Nature Challenge:
Spot an animal on your way to work or school? See an insect on a plant near your home? Take a few photos and upload them to iNaturalist to contribute to observations of biodiversity all around you during the York City Nature Challenge from 25-28th April 2025! Feel free to make your own observations of animals, plants and fungi where you live, work or play during these days, as well as join any one of the many events happening around York by different community groups. See the Events page for more details.
Dr Smriti Safaya, SEI York Research Associate and Croucher Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow, also shared insights from last year's City Nature Challenge at our IGDC discussion event last year, Open and participatory action research for social justice.
