Hi all,

Today, #equalstreetnames was launched, something Open Knowledge / OSM Belgium (among others) can be very proud of if you ask me. The project combines OSM and Wikidata (+ extra data crowdsourced during a workshop) to make this map: https://equalstreetnames.brussels/ (stunning isn't it?). More info on why an how can be found in this blogpost: https://be.okfn.org/2020/03/03/equalstreetnames-brussels-launch-of-open-data-visualisation/

The project already got some nice media coverage, e.g. https://www.bruzz.be/samenleving/nauwelijks-brusselse-straten-naar-vrouwen-vernoemd-trage-inhaalbeweging-2020-03-03 and https://www.rtbf.be/info/dossier/les-grenades/detail_combattre-le-sexisme-en-rebaptisant-les-rues-de-bruxelles?id=10446433

Of course, you can help spread the word, e.g. by sharing
