I would like to congratulate the organising team in Nairobi and the SotM Working Group for doing this. Giving the worldwide community a broader understanding of the challenges of mapping Africa and using maps there is positive step for OSM’s inclusiveness as a truly worldwide map.

Dear all, Get ready to meet and connect with old and new mappy friends from the global OpenStreetMap community again! The State of the Map Organising Committee is thrilled to officially announce that the global conference of the OpenStreetMap community, State of the Map (SotM), will be making its way to Nairobi, Kenya from September 6th-8th 2024!

Building on the valuable lessons and experiences from the previous events, the SotM Organising Committee is committed to making this edition even more accessible to everyone who wishes to partake in this grand celebration of open mapping, sharing passionate voices with the entire community.
