Núria Castell

Núria Castell, Senior Scientist at NILU, is the coordinator of the Technology and Society group, leading national and international research projects focused on the uptake and validation of novel sensor technologies and the integration of citizen observations in policy and research.

She is currently coordinating the Horizon Europe CitiObs project, aiming at enhancing Citizen Observatories for urban environmental monitoring in 85 cities in Europe.

Núria’s academic pursuits encompass a wide-ranging spectrum of fields, including sustainable urban development, citizen science, environmental governance, planetary health, urban living labs experimentation and the intersection of science and art.

Núria also holds the position of co-chair of the Citizen Science Global Partnership group on Scaling-up citizen science Air-quality monitoring and the European Citizen Science Association‘s working group on air quality.
