A Computing Community Consortium (CCC) workshop report outlines grand challenges and strategic recommendations for converging advanced computing and citizen science. The report argues this convergence can enhance national competitiveness, improve government efficiency, develop STEM workforce skills, and address pressing challenges like natural disaster response. Key infrastructure recommendations include cross-agency collaboration, permanent federal funding streams, interoperable AI-ready data standards (FAIR data), privacy-preserving frameworks (federated learning, data trusts), explainable AI governance, and a proposed National Citizen Science & AI Convergence Hub.
