[Board] Student Award initiative

[Suchith Anand]

Dear Board,

Please let us know what improvements/changes you want for the Student Award initiative. As i told before , if you have specific ideas that need to be in place please suggest them and we are happy to implement any changes needed.

We have been trying to get as much inputs from the community and all inputs we got we have added including to start small (with three events - FOSS4G, FOSS4G-Europe and FOSS4G-NA)

We have put in lot of efforts to build up momentum for Openness in GeoEducation over the years and now we are getting real momentum building up in our Open Geo Education activities globally . It has been combined efforts of all colleagues in OSGeo, ICA and ISPRS  who all come together for the first time on this "Geo for All" mission of making Geospatial Education and opportunities available for all that made this momentum possible.

I really hope we can make this Student Awards happen. It doesn't matter which form it takes shape  but please make it happen.

Best wishes,

Suchith
