In today's session we'll give more info about the upcoming afrimapr keynote talk at the international useR!2022 conference (https://user2022.r-project.org/) and our invitation to complete the community feedback form at https://forms.gle/tWPRyJcS9FuMCBxv6.

I will also introduce a range of R packages that facilitates easy access to open data sets. We will look at data related to mapping, health, climate, society, and more, while specifically focusing on Africa. We’ll also share some resources to help you get started with your data package in R. The talk will be relevant to those not yet familiar with R as well.
