We've started Teaching OSM in refugee hosting communities in Northern
Uganda,  using ex field mapper teachers who had to go back to work. Is
being adopted into the curriculum,  we hope... Also bringing it into the
settlements soon, with the same technique.

That's a great idea, I know how much children are enthusiast about this
experience! I wish you good luck on this.
I work at Politecnico di Milano so we are not that far...

Sure, I'm part of the Organizing Team and I'm leading the Academic Track of

Hello Tyler, ciao Marco,

thank you all. Our idea is to incoporate a 'mapathon section' in
cartography labs we'll run at schools from next year. We've done some labs
at schools in the past years and they were very exciting for kids. Marco,
we are active in Veneto region, so we'll have for sure chance to get
acquainted.
So, keep in touch and hope to see you at SOTM!

Dear Rachele,
I am Marco from Politecnico di Milano - thanks Tyler for mentioning us. As
Tyler said, we have organized many "mini-mapathons" in schools (including
elementary schools) so we have a lot of experience in running this kind of
events. This is the biggest one we had:

Should you need more information, feel free to contact me.

Thanks for your message and proposed mapathon idea. More info on organizing
events is here: http://www.missingmaps.org/host/

There are others in the Italian community at Politecnico di Milano who have
done work on mapathons in schools. Yes, feel free use the Missing Maps logo
