We look forward to working with you all for making geospatial education, software and opportunities accessible to all. Thanks to all of your  efforts which make this possible.

Great news Suchith.
Please during the course underline the importance of not only using
QGIS, but also contributing back, in one of the many possible ways of
doing so. Also, I would feel appropriate, given such a large audience,
contributing back from the course organizers.
All the best.
