We know from the pilot HOT unSummit programme that we need a better name (too many people thought it referred to the United Nations!)

Can you help us think of one?

It need to encapsulate one, some or all of the following aspects…

  • It is a programme that supports / collaborates on open mapping-relevant events all over the world
  • The objective is to inspire people and give them the means to take collective action on humanitarian / social problems through open mapping and OpenStreetMap
  • It seeks to expand and strengthen the humanitarian open mapping movement
  • It is supported by / powered by HOT, but in collaboration with many communities and organising committees

Once we have a new name, we will update the branding and the next phase of the programme will relaunch in June.

You can submit a suggested name here - either anonymously, or if you leave your email address, HOT will send you a token of appreciation if your suggestion is chosen… Deadline for submissions is 16 April 2023.
