<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Dear All</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">The First UN World Geospatial Information Congress will start in a few hours. I was involved in the Academic Track Session and, together with Ivana Ivanova, we are presenting a contribution about "Open Science and Education"
where there is also the description of our activities related to UN Open GIS (training and UN Challenge). Moreover, GeoForAll is also presented. Our presentation is on Wednesday (Ivana will present) and we are finishing it (we need to submit it by tomorrow).
We will share with you after the submission.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">I have a question related to the budget. We are more or less at the end of the year and there are no more meetings of the UN Open GIS. This year I attended the two that were organized (Uganda, US), using support from
OSGeo only for the former. I'm kindly asking if there is somebody who is against the fact that OSGeo supports my travel here at the UN World Geospatial Information Congress (flight and VISA, no accommodation and meal), provided that we saved some money and
this money is available in the UN Committee budget of this year. </p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Please reply if you have comments or doubts by the end of this week. </p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Best,</p>
