Hi all, I received this message via sms this morning from a logistician working on the yellow fever intervention in Kinshasa...
"I am Etienne, French logistics team leader. We are visiting for the first time today the zone of Kingasani. We already know it is the most dense zone we will work in. We are facing access and transportation issues because of the small roads. Maps are a critical key for success in this urban yellow fever vaccination. Thanks so much for your help and support." Just wanted to share it with you. If you have time, there are more projects on the tasking manager that need urgent work... http://tasks.hotosm.org/ Thanks a million!
