> Hi,
>
> Last year, the Interuniversity National Mapathon was a great success:
> about 200 people in seven universities participated, and we got in the 7 pm
> news issue of both VRT and VTM.
> OSM-Be volunteers supported all seven events.
>
> The next national mapathon is being planned right now, and they want our
> help again!
>
> We will need volunteers at ULB (Brussels), VUB (Brussels), UCL
> (Louvain-la-Neuve), KUL (Leuven), Ugent, ULG (Liege), UNamur. Four more
> cities might still join in the following days.
>
> Previous experience with humanitarian mapping, iD and the Tasking Manager
> is of course welcome, but we will give you some training too. Last year, it
> wasn't easy finding volunteers for all places, but it is important that
> there is an experienced mapper at all of these places.
>
> Basically we need you for any or all of these tasks:
> - give an introduction about (humanitarian) OSM, a short training
> - just being around and helping people with questions
> - validating (even from home) during the event, so we can correct newbie
> mappers before they make the same mistake a thousand times
>
> Just send me a mail with your preferred tasks and city (or cities) and
> we'll be in touch.
