The Great Australian Wildlife Search

The Great Australian Wildlife Search (GAWS) is a nationwide citizen science initiative led by the Odonata Foundation, in collaboration with EnviroDNA and the Murray–Darling Basin Authority. Its mission: to map the health of Australia’s waterways and uncover the habitats of threatened aquatic species using cutting-edge eDNA analysis. SuperKind was engaged to design and develop a web application that made participation simple for everyday Australians — empowering thousands of citizen scientists to contribute valuable data to one of the most ambitious conservation efforts in the country.
