Hello all,
Imagination for People is a platform aimed at supporting imaginative
social projects through diverse means.
One of our most recent initiatives is a series of "€śFocus Weeksâ€"
during which we explore various dimensions of social innovation using
broad themes. The idea is to bridge gaps between interesting
technologies, groups, people, and projects.
Mapping is our theme for September. Relevant issues and topics include
mapping APIs, integrated resource management (including water
management), crowdmapping, geolocation, and crisis mapping. Overall, we
wish to be as inclusive as possible in our approach.
We’ll be holding a “livetweet†session on #InnMap this coming
Wednesday (September 19), from 8–10 a.m. PDT (11 a.m. to 1 p.m. EDT,
15:00-17:00 UTC).
If you know of social projects making use of innovative mapping
technology, you can alter us to them on this Etherpad: http://i4p.ca/innmap
If you would like to participate in some of our activities, you can
learn more about our focus week on our blog: http://i4p.ca/fw1
Cheers!
