<div>Thanks! I'll present the newsletter on Wednesday during my presentation at UN. I want also to propose them a special session of the newsletter dedicated to UN with the updates of UN geospatial unit activities. </div>
<div>Do you agree?</div>
<div>In case, I can help on that.</div>
<div>Cheers.</div>

<br>
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.
<br>
<br>
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>
