Congratulations Samaila, this sounds like a great training.

For those interested in mapping Niger, CartONG is currently supporting 
OSM-Ne in mapping the city of Diffa and N'guigmi. The data will be used 
by the International Committee of the Red Cross for water & sanitation 
projects.

You can support us on 3 projects :

  * https://tasks.hotosm.org/project/3777 to map the new neighborhoods
    of Diffa with a recent imagery => this project is OK for beginners
  * https://tasks.hotosm.org/project/3802 to update the city of N'guigmi
    thanks to a recent imagery given by ICRC => for intermediate
    mappers, it is both updating existing mapping & adding the many new
    buildings appeared since the last mapping campaign. Be careful with
    the offset ;-)
  * https://tasks.hotosm.org/project/3397#bottom complete validation of
    the city of Diffa with a new imagery, still ongoing => for more
    advanced mappers since it requires a lot of precise updating of
    existing data.

You're welcome to work on one of these projects during a mapathon, ping 
us if you want us to introduce the project. Thanks a lot for your 
contribution!

Best regards.

Martin
