What about what Charlie suggested? Regarding a way to make possible 2-4 concrete multi-GeoForAll lab educational content collaborations? In the GeoFolrAll iberoamerica network there are many labs that will be very interested in these kind of collaborations...

Based on this, I am proposing the following for GeoForAll budget 2018 GeoForAll Student awards for FOSS4G events will be 500 USD per event (both local and global). Distributed as follows First prize -250 USD ;Second prize - 150 USD; Third prize -100 USD We will arrange for max. 4 FOSS4G events to be supported for student awards per year (these will be FOSS4G regional events or other events like gvSIG conference etc which have a dedicated Open source Geo Track and LOC willing to run the award event. This will help us provide more global distribution for supporting student excellence. The main deliverable for any LOC wishing to take up this is to ensure there is an LOC contact responsible for running the student awards with criteria setup etc and award ceremony done at the closing ceremony and awards given to winners. Total budget - 2000 USD As 2018 FOSS4G Global event is happening in Africa, it is a great opportunity for widening participation for more students in Africa, so I am also requesting OSGeo Board to consider allocating 2k USD specifically to support more student participation through the Travel Grant Program if the Board thinks it is appropriate.
