Good evening from Uganda! After spending three weeks in Mbale and mapping 11 districts there, we've now moved on to Tororo, another town in the east, close to the Kenyan border.

One of the students we've worked with from UCU Mbale, Hillary Musundi, has written an amazing story on his experiences mapping with us. Please read the full story at https://hotosm.org/updates/2016-02-03_my_mapping_experience_by_hillary_musundi_student_at_uganda_christian_university !

"When I was first told about mapping, I thought it was something to do sitting indoors on your laptop. Well, it’s also a bit like that, but little did I know the adventure that awaited me. I quickly got acquainted with the whole mapping process after the training we received on the first two days. Earlier I had met Douglas Ssebaggala who had showed us how to use OpenMapKit and JOSM. I just couldn’t wait to start my journey in the world. After the training, I felt I was ready."
