Participated by more than 170 UN personnel from 65 UN entities, the UN Maps Clinics provided a series of interactive and hands-on sessions that showcased updates of UN Maps features and applications, demonstrated outputs, and gathered feedback for future enhancement. It co-designed the roadmap of UN Maps to better plan the future steps to deliver coordinated support for UN’s daily operational activities.

🎉 Our Mappers of the Month for December are the Universitat Jaume I (UJI) Master's students! 🎉

Since 2022, UJI has been collaborating with the #UNMappers Team to provide #OpenStreetMap, #opendata and open-source tools, and #UNMaps training with Erasmus+ Master's students.

We interviewed UJI GIS Professor Michael Gould and four (4) of the Master's students about their experience and motivation in mapping in support of UN peacekeeping efforts.
