Some of you may recall me from my WSP Missing Maps Mapathon days which I've moved on to more grass-roots activities in Jinibara Country. I'm currently completing a United Nations Fellowship where I'm looking at organising a local initiative in relation to SDG
11.5 and community resiliency (particularly on topic with all the flooding events up here recently!) where I thought holding a Mapathon would be an engaging way to raise community awareness. </div>

I've had a chat with Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) who are keen to look at putting up a project which I have the following questions:</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
<ul>
<li>HOT will require a project host organisation which typically would be a local OSM Chapter</li><ul>
<li>We've identified that OSM Oceania isn't currently on their list </li><li>Is this something we could look into? </li></ul>
<li>Has anyone else in this group been involved in any disaster management/community resiliency/risk reduction initiatives?</li><ul>
<li>I'm also working at my local neighbourhood centre where we're developing a community disaster management network and handbook so keen to hear thoughts</li></ul>
<li>Anyone else based in the Blackall Range/Sunshine Coast/Brisbane/Noosa region interested if I were to set something up?</li></ul>
