<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">This is an excellent idea. I will do my best to support this remotely. I am still waiting for some important meetings dates confirmation in June 2020 before I can confirm my participation for the <span style="font-size: 12pt;">ISPRS
Congress.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">May I also suggest that we have the GeoForAll meeting also at this BOF , so everyone involved in OSGeo education get opportunity to meet and discuss ideas. I am cc in Andreea so she can inform this. I request all colleagues
attending the meeting to share their ideas/inputs on how we can accelerate efforts for helping bridge the geospatial digital divide.</p>

Dear All</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">
time ago I wrote about the possibility of organizing a one-day Forum at ISPRS 2020 about "Open Science and New Technologies". I highlighted the importance of this event, given that ISPRS Congress (<a href="http://www.isprs2020-nice.com/" id="LPlnk752396" target="_blank" class="OWAAutoLink" previewremoved="true">http://www.isprs2020-nice.com/</a>)
gather generally more than 3000 people and therefore it could be a good window for open data/software/education/science and so on. The Forum will be on Thursday 18 June and we need now to decide the contents and the format of the Forum.</div>

I put in gdrive a document where interested people can add ideas (first sheet) and their name (second sheet) if they want to be involved in the Forum and attend the Congress and Forum</div>
