[Geo4All] Central Appalachian YouthMappers Symposium - Please register

[Solis, Patricia]

Hello Maria! Nice to see your name!

I’ll be seeing you at that conference, in Brussels, right?  I’m presenting there on our YouthMappers program along with my colleagues Nuala Cowan (GWU) and Chad Blevins (USAID) and hope you can attend the talk.

Meanwhile, please see attached a one-page description and check out the website: www.youthmappers.org. In the time since we created the network earlier this year, there have been more than 3 million edits to OpenStreetMap with the hashtag #youthmappers. We now have 30 universities in 12 countries (the one pager does not say this because we are growing so fast, it is impossible for me to keep it up to date right now.)

I’m happy to answer any more of your questions and look forward to meeting you in person!

Patricia

Tom, dear, nice to see you here as well. I will be talking about humanitarian mapping in a conference next week and I want also to mention YouthMappers. Do you have something short that I can read?
Thanks a lot!
Maria
