UN Maps Community Ambassadors
The UN Maps Community Ambassadors will support mapping and community outreach activities of UN Maps. They will lead and coordinate local community engagement through capacity building and training opportunities. Through this pilot, we hope to gain insights on how we can strengthen a community-owned and sustainable open data, and to explore the feasibility of establishing local UN Mappers chapters and/or communities.
