Hello HOT community, The Peace Corps and Returned Peace Corps Volunteers of Washington DC will host a Vanuatu response mapping event this coming Monday at our headquarters. Vanuatu's current Peace Corps Volunteers will join via Google Hangout from their evacuation point in Australia. At this point, we are planning to ask the Vanuatu PCVs to use their local knowledge to map their host communities and label key points such as communication towers, schools and other buildings that can serve as shelters. Participants in the DC event will map Vanuatu and other vulnerable islands in the South Pacific.
That said, I am writing to ask for any other suggestions that members of this community might have regarding our geographic focus. Our Vanuatu Volunteers have excellent local knowledge of the nation that we can leverage. Finally, the event is open to the public, so please come if you can! Details: Monday, March 23 6-8 pm Shriver Hall, Peace Corps Headquarters 1111 20th St NW, Washington DC Please email me with your suggestions, ideas and questions. Cheers, Courtney Clark -- *Courtney Clark* Innovation Fellow at the Office of Innovation, Peace Corps 1111 20th Street NW | Washington, DC 20526 *231.740.9595 <231.740.9595>* | *ccla...@peacecorps.gov <ccla...@peacecorps.gov>* RPCV Guinea 2012-2014
