Also it will be good to highlight one Europa Challenge app in each month's Geo4All newsletter. May i request you to select one and prepare a short article for the newsletter. It serves two purpose

1. Hightlights the excellent work of a great team <br>
2. Promotes Europa challenge and inspire new students and SMEs to build innovative applications for future.<br>

as part the UN locust intervention program [2][3], and WorldWind is in dialogue with UNOSAT for their interest in WorldWind. I consider these all of these activities to be under the OSGeo tent. And certainly of proven value as well as future value to the UN.

These events run by the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) might be of wider interest. Thanks to Mark Mulligan for sharing this info.

Also the <b>Geo-technology in the Field: GIS, GPS, and Remote sensing for fieldwork workshop</b> (Monday 25 and Tuesday 26 April 2016) which will cover Open source GIS, GPS Data and monitoring etc might be of interest.<br>
