After discussions with colleagues from OSGeo here in Brazil and with the support of OSGeo Chapter Argentina, we have considered the possibility of hosting the event in Belém, due to the existing synergy between OSGeo and strategic discussions on climate change.<br><br>On April 28th, the topic of FOSS4G 2024 was raised again, and there were no official candidates. Japan was mentioned as a possibility by Nobusuke, but it was deemed unfeasible at the moment. Adam brought up the idea of an event in South America.<br><br>On October 31st, 2022, I suggested the possibility of holding the event in Brazil, and many points were discussed at that time. We realized that we do not have an official OSGeo chapter in Brazil, although we are active in Telegram groups and similar communities. This initially generated some insecurity in continuing with the proposal. However, we have recently resumed discussions, and on December 16th, Luca and Vasile provided important explanations about the organization of FOSS4G.<br><br>Given this history and after productive meetings with members from Brazil and Argentina, I would like to suggest Brazil as the host for FOSS4G in 2024.<br><br>Would you like to support this idea?<br><br>Best regards,<br><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">--</span><br></div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="font-size:large;text-align:center"><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Tatiana Pará M. de Freitas</font></span></div><div><b><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Agrônoma, especialista em Geotecnologias<br>Mestre em Desenvolvimento e Gestão de empreendimentos</font></b></div><div><b><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Profª E.B.T.T. do campus Castanhal do IFPA.</font></b></div><div><b><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Fundadora e Coordenadora do projeto Meninas da Geo<br>Conselheira do Enactus IFPA Castanhal - empreendedorismo social</font></b></div></div></div></div>
