For a period of 24 months, i have been part of a team that have conducted a citizen science environmental project in our community. From this project we have learned valuable lessons that can help programming of environmental projects in a manner that is not only inclusive but also exciting for youth and young scientists in similar communities across Sub-Saharan Africa. While with my colleagues, we are planning to document and share our observations, we would like to get a picture of publishing options that might be available to us. If you have any information that can help us to address our concerns, please let us know.

Well, it depends on your interests. If you are thinking peer reviewed there are some journals that don't have page charges. And there certainly are ways to publish solid citizen science data in such outlets. But there are also other opportunities. Personally I started writing essays a few years back and some of them have data tucked in. Better than not having to pay, some papers will pay you. Here's an example with a little preliminary data that I would not otherwise have followed up on: https://northernwoodlands.org/outside_story/article/duckweed-migration
