<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif" size="2">I got an email from an UNMEER Information
Management Officer who is wrapping up his time in West Africa. He
sent an email to several OCHA IMOs at the HQ level who have been supporting
him to let us know he was moving on. But, what I noticed was his kind words
for DHN.....and take a look at the OSM example he mentioned!</font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif" size="2">Also is highly remarkable the
support received by thousands of Digital Volunteers, thru the Digital
Humanitarian Network. As an example of the use of this, I provided training
to the ambulances drivers who transport EVD probable cases, on using
OpenStreetMap in smartphones for navigation purposes. </font>

Cheers,</font>
