Dear All,
I am forwarding the response from Jos in case more people would be interested in FOSS4G training in Belgium this summer.

Dear Mr. Maro,
 

The short train-the-trainer initiative on Free and Open Source Tools for Geomatics (GIS, Remote Sensing and SDI) which we organize in Leuven, Belgium between 27-july and 7-august-2009 may be an opportunity for NARI to acquire GIS-capacity, training materials, software for further use in your training programs. Since Papua New Guinea is categorized by OECD as an ‘Other Low Income Country’ candidates may be supported by a scholarship of the Belgian Flemish Interuniversity Council. You find information about the training and about the procedure to apply for a scholarship in the attached .PDF. If the scholarship would not be awarded, the opportunity remains to participate at a reduced fee.

 

Best regards,

Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] GIS Trainers Needed

 

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

I am a GIS officer working with the Papua New Guinea National Agricultural Research Institute (NARI). We are currently developing a project proposal for the Asia Caribbean Pacific Scientific and Technology programme under the EU project. The key objective is to strengthen capacity in the organization some specialized and general research areas. Under this project we will be seeking potential GIS Trainers to improve our GIS capacity in NARI and two other Ministries in Vanuatu and Solomon Islands. The training will include a beginners and advanced GIS approach using Open Source.

 

Please advice.

 

Regards
