[Suchith Anand]

Hi Rafael,

Thank you for leading the webinars for Geo4All community and making it available for all. This will develop as an excellent resource to share new ideas and build new collaborations for the community.

All - i request everyone who is interested to contribute to the webinar series to contact Rafael [email - Rafael.Moreno at ucdenver.edu ]. Please also add the next webinar date to your calendar. This is an excellent opportunity to learn from our excellent colleagues at Politecnico di Milano and the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team about Humanitarian Mapathons for children and how everyone can contribute their ideas to support the United Nations Open Geospatial Initiative. Our labs have been contributing to Humanitarian Mapathons to also  teach our students  the real essence of education and humanity and “sharing knowledge and expertise” to help each other in times of need [1]

Best wishes,

Suchith

Humanitarian Mapathons for children

Maria Antonia Brovelli1, Marco Minghini1, Tyler Radford2, Aldo Torrebruno1

1 Politecnico di Milano

2 Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT)

This webinar will provide an introduction on humanitarian mapathons for children, which represent a remarkable educational experience as they combine geography and awareness about our world, technology and humanitarian aspects. Following the successful experiences of Politecnico di Milano (Italy), the most important educational and technical aspects of humanitarian mapathons with children will be outlined. The purpose is to provide the GeoForAll community, and specially the teachers involved (at all levels), with some practical instructions on how to set up and run their own mapathons. The webinar is organized in collaboration with the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) under the umbrella of the UNOGeo initiative GeoForAll and OSGeo are partners of.
