Dear Delphine and Florence, Our HOT project in Tanzania is running a collaborative Mapathon with UNFPA, involving the Sectretariat, and I wondered if you would like to be involved, here in Uganda. The Tanzanian project is focused on FGM and SGBV. Our intrepid community surveyors feed back considerable evidence of SGBV in the areas we have been working in (Arua, Yumbe and Hoima). We map relevant key geospatial indicators there. Being part of those communities, our people are always aware of the protection issues on the ground in Refugee and Host communities themselves.
We are able to run a Mapathon event in Kampala, in which we could introduce people to contributions which can be made from afar. HERE <https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjX6un-oLDdAhVMKMAKHS_yCS8QwqsBMAB6BAgGEAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DywkhjI0aCTI&usg=AOvVaw1iZxV9L1ZKBleu5I2G6Hpr> is a video of, broadly, how it works. HERE <http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/distance-to-education-arua_209285#8/3.779/29.792> is a sample of those interactive maps, this one showing distances from villages to schools in Arua, and here is a map of WASHPOINTS WITHOUT LIGHTING <http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/BMH> throughout Arua and Yumbe districts (excluding BidiBidi). The yellow points show 'Lit WASH Points'. Please pass this on to anybody interested.
