Meet & Greet. Share your experiences and knowledge

Please join us for an informal meetup group to support humanitarians, digital and health, to give you a place to share your stories and learn from one another. We had our first meetup last month. Because of the success of the first one, we wanted to open the invitation to all interested Georgia URISA members.

Our focus will be to discuss GIS, IM, Crisis Mapping, tech platforms, as well as the Ebola and Nepal responses. 

We hope to see you there!
