Today I was able to participate in a Zoom meeting for the OSM Africa Mapathon where I was able to get more in depth training on mapping and I was able to finish tasks #699, #769, #784 but I still left them to be looked at by mappers more skilled than myself. Along with that we did a Kahoot with questions on OSM. I learned a lot and I hope I’m able to do something similar soon. I also hope from now on I’ll find the time to work on even more projects with my new found skills.

Yesterday I had a call with the coordinator of Unique Mappers Network after trying to reach out for 2 weeks. This is a very exciting moment for me as I’ve been wanting to volunteer for Unique Mappers Network for a while due to my interest in urban planning and development. Along with my want to volunteer to build a portfolio for my further education as I am still in senior secondary two. I hope that I can develop my mapping skills even further and help both my community and those internationally.
