Hello all, Last September 1, Amazon Web Services (AWS) released an episode of their documentary series *Now Go Build* which highlighted the work done by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team in the Philippines, especially in mapping the town of Guagua, Pampanga.
Several members of the OSM-PH community however have observed that there are missing and problematic narratives in the video related to the story it tells of geospatial and humanitarian workers in the country. Therefore, some of us have prepared and release the following statement: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/images/a/aa/A_Call_to_Correct_Narratives_about_Geospatial_Work.pdf As of writing, the video is now unavailable. Someone made an archive of the video here: https://catdrop.drycat.fr/r/BMnz2gzJ#2ZFAiINWEgHDU+ncv1ZHj78vQFB0/weneUJRC6L+XxQ= The response from HOTOSM management was forwarded in the OSM PH mailing list. We appreciate the response and actions moving forward: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-ph/2020-September/006620.html warm regards, Arnalie
