GeoForAll is very happy to be part of these excellent global developments happening at all levels and dimensions.There is also strong synergies with UN OpenGIS Initiative. We encourage all to be part of the various calls from Global Food Security to SMARTIES
Entrepreneurship competitions [1],[2][3] to expand ideas.<br>
<br>
We welcome everyone interested to join synergies and work together to expand OpenCitySmart opportunities[4][5] and enable Geo technologies in empowering communities and helping improving the Quality of Life and standards of living for everyone. Let us all work
together to help create a world that is more accessible, equitable and full of innovation and opportunities for everyone.<br>
