Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] UN-GGIM Academic Network

[Peter Mooney]

This is great news - Congratulations and well done Maria on the development
of the UN-GGIM Academic Network.

Just to echo what Jody said about GeoForAll - I would be very interested to
hear your opinion, and Suchith's opinion, on where GeoForAll stands now
that this more formalised and high level academic network has been
established?

I feel that in many cases, for Universities and Research Centers, it might
be very difficult to have an application signed by the top level of the
University. I know in my case it would be very difficult.

GeoForAll offers the very inclusive, bottom up, grass-roots, type of
educational network where a single, small, dedicated and motivated lab
within a complex system like a University can join (based on agreeing to
the GeoForAll MOU) and working with open principles for open education and
learning.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Request for Conference Committee Chairperson for FOSS4G NA 2018

[Rob Emanuele]

Dear FOSS4G Community,



We, the FOSS4G NA Core Committee, are looking for a volunteer to chair the
conference committee for the FOSS4G North America 2018 conference. The
Conference Committee Chair (CCC) will be responsible for working with the
Logistical Organizer (LO) to run a successful conference in 2018. The CCC
ultimately shapes the conference, and the success of the conference largely
relies on his or her passion and hard work. The North America geospatial
community needs someone who is willing to commit themselves to making this
FOSS4G NA the best ever, for the benefit of and with the gratitude of all
of us. If this sounds like you or someone you know, please get in touch!



Some details:



The CCC chooses, organizes and leads the conference committee. The
conference committee will work with the LO to run the conference. The
FOSS4G NA core committee, as part of our responsibilities, have chosen the
Eclipse Foundation/LocationTech as the Logistical Organizer. The Eclipse
Foundation was the LO for past two FOSS4G NA conferences, and has been
organizing conferences professionally for 14 years.



The responsibilities of the LO and CCC are described in the FOSS4G NA
governance document here: https://goo.gl/NJAHUj. In short, the CCC and the
conference committee are responsible for all conference content and any
activities that fall outside the scope of the Logistical Organizer.



The Eclipse Foundation will be on the forefront of selecting a city and
venue for the 2018 conference, based on a well trodden process that they as
conference organizers have been doing for many years with a lot of success.
This includes  FOSS4G NA 2015 (San Francisco) and FOSS4G NA 2016 (Raleigh),
which have seen the highest attendee numbers for FOSS4G NA conferences with
very positive attendee feedback. The CCC, core committee, and general
public are invited to participate in the city/venue/date selection process
by suggesting and making cases for cities and venues in open discussion.
The date of the conference and the venue will come down to where the LO can
support and a final decision by the core committee.



While the CCC should reside in North America, the CCC is not required to
live in the city which is chosen to host the event; in fact the city will
not be chosen until after a CCC has been selected. However, the CCC is
expected to work with local organizations and volunteers (such as OSGeo
local chapters, local geo meetup groups, etc) in order to ensure the
conference includes local participation. Participation by local volunteers
has been a key element in the success of past conferences. The core
committee, the LO, and the general community can and will help with this
task of recruiting local involvement, but the responsibility of organizing
local involvement lies with the CCC.



If you would like to volunteer for CCC, please make a post to the
foss4gna_selection
 google group
describing why you want to be involved. If you have any questions, please
feel free to post to the foss4gna_selection list or contact the core
committee at foss4gna.core.commit...@gmail.com.



Sincerely,

The FOSS4G NA Core Committee

Thanks Maria for sharing this excellent updates. We need to have all our labs 
join the UN-GGIM Academic Network and ensure strong support for Open Principles 
in Education. I am in Africa right now for a G77 Ministerial conference and it 
is important that Africa and other developing regions benefit from Geospatial 
opportunities. You are our voice and strong presence for UN GGIM Advisory Board.

[OSGeo-Discuss] UN-GGIM Academic Network

[Maria Antonia Brovelli]

Dear All
As probably some of you already know, recently was created, under UN-GGIM, the 
Academic Network.
Here you can see all details
http://unggim.academicnetwork.org
In my opinion it is relevant that all universities and research centers 
contributing to the UN mandate and the SDGs are part of this network.
Please consider, if you have activities in this field, to join the network 
(procedures are described on the website) and to help me with comments and 
suggestions.
The next meeting of the UN-GGIM Academic Network will be in New York (at UN). I 
will attend and therefore I can present our join activities and I can report 
you later the outcomes.
Best regards
Maria
