[Teachosm] Geography Awareness Week

[Mikel Maron]

Hello!

That's great to hear ... send along details of your event, and we'll add it to the schedule.

There will be OSM Tasking Manager tasks that can take a lot of contributors. We're still working out the details over the next couple weeks.

I suspect you are connected with Kevin Dobbs through AmericaView? MapGive is definitely involved, it's where I'm now serving as a Presidential Innovation Fellow.

Cheers
Mikel
 
ps MapGive is formally an initiative of the US State Department which aims to support the HOT community, rather than "part" of the activities of HOT the organization.
