[HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

[Arun Ganesh]

Denis, that is amazing! Couple of things to note:


   - using the TM it becomes a JOSM specific task and requires a bit of
   experience to be able to work with multiple layers
   - instructions could be improved on how one uses the school data layer
   as a reference. What if someone decides to copy paste all the schools and
   upload?
   - How do we synced mapped schools with the spreadsheet?

The workaround I feel for this is to have the TM cover a few districts as a
project for only advanced users. New mappers should rather contribute using
the spreadsheet and iD.
