The manuscript provides an overview of the mid-term results of the citizen science campaign activities conducted within the Life CONCEPTU MARIS project (LIFE20 NAT/IT/001371) whose aim is to improve the conservation status of cetaceans and pelagic sea turtles by addressing information gaps, setting up an internationally agreed-upon approach for surveillance, and identifying appropriate conservation measures. It fosters a cooperative effort by engaging the scientific community, stakeholders, policy makers and citizens in a common effort to support biodiversity.
