SUMMARY:

Citizen science has been developing and consolidating in various fields of knowledge, based on participatory and democratic perspectives. Given growing environmental problems, citizen participation presents itself as a potential instrument for environmental conservation, while simultaneously guaranteeing a right and strengthening the relationship between science and society. In this context, this work seeks to understand: how does the relationship between institutions that promote citizen science and professionals such as dive guides and tour guides contribute to the conservation of marine biodiversity? The research adopts a qualitative approach, with theoretical in-depth analysis, semi-structured interviews, and content and discourse analysis. The research discusses the challenges of marine conservation in Conservation Units, highlighting the importance of community participation in the management and knowledge production processes. Furthermore, it systematizes the functioning of citizen science in Fernando de Noronha, presenting the main areas of activity, objectives, social actors involved, and challenges faced in the implementation and development of scientific knowledge. Finally, it brings the voice of citizen scientists, highlighting their motivations, interests, data collection methods, and other essential elements for building active engagement.
