Climate change and environmental degradation present significant threats globally. The various sources report on different climate records. The European Green Deal aims to counteract these challenges by achieving zero emissions by 2050, with a significant focus on citizen involvement. Citizen science initiatives play a critical role in engaging the public in climate action through data collection and monitoring of environmental impacts. Technological tools, such as dashboards, facilitate this involvement by visualizing complex climate data, raising awareness, and bridging the knowledge-action gap. This paper discusses a dashboard (developed within the Horizon 2020 project I-CHANGE) designed to engage citizens in environmental data collection and analysis. The Dashboard, co-designed with scientists and stakeholders, supports citizens in viewing, understanding, and interpreting data collected with low-cost sensors and through crowdsourcing activities. The paper gives an overview of the Dashboard's design, implementation, data integration, and its role in fostering public engagement and environmental consciousness.
