City Nature Challenge

The City Nature Challenge is an annual global event that encourages people to explore and document local wildlife in urban areas. Participants take photos of plants, animals, and other organisms and share them using a mobile app. The event promotes citizen science, helping scientists gather data on biodiversity in cities. It fosters community engagement and awareness about the importance of nature in urban environments. Through friendly competition among cities, the Challenge aims to inspire greater appreciation for local ecosystems and encourage conservation efforts.
