>> 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.
