Dear Maria,

Thank you for getting in touch. It's great to hear that you will introduce
UN experts to QGIS!

Let me forward your request for support to the PSC because many people have
been much more involved in creating the training manual and discussing
education efforts [0] than I have been.

I'll be happy to help where I can but most of my support effort goes into
gis.stackexchange.com rather than localized platforms which might not
appear on Google search results when users are looking for answers.

Best wishes
Anita
