Biodiversity in underrepresented languages using crowdsourcing | 小眾語言中的生物多樣性 - 群眾工作模式的探索
Mohammed Kamal-Deen Fuseini (Dnshitobu), AgnesAbah

(EN)
Biodiversity preservation and management is crucial, but many languages, especially those of indigenous communities, are underrepresented in scientific literature, hindering the documentation of local biodiversity. Crowdsourcing offers a solution to this problem, enabling individuals who speak these languages to share their knowledge via user-friendly platforms with features such as audio recording and image uploading.

生物多樣性的保護和管理是一項非常重要的工作,然而許多的語言,尤其是那些原住民族群的聲音往往缺席於科學研究之中,對當地生物多樣性記錄的工作產生空缺。群眾工作模式為這個問題提供了一種可行的解決方案,透過一個使用者友善的平台,來自這些語言的使用者們可以透過錄音或是圖像紀錄的方式來與世界分享他們的知識。
