Reflections & Resilience

Welcome to a special episode of Mapping the Conversations! As we approach the one-year anniversary of the podcast, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the progress made in the geospatial community over the past year. This episode features an audio montage from some of our guests who have been active in the UN-GGIM mechanism. They share their insights on:

  1. The maturity of the geospatial community over the past year
  2. What they’re most proud of and areas they feel still need improvement
  3. Why the upcoming Seventh High-level Forum on United Nations Global Geospatial Information Management in Mexico City (October 8-10, 2024) is
    so important and what they are looking forward to

 

I also take the opportunity to share my own reflections on how we’ve become more connected, diverse, and action oriented as a community, especially with increased participation from Small Island Developing States. But as we continue our journey, there’s still more work to do in bridging the digital divide and driving the adoption of National Geospatial Information Management.

Tune in for this thoughtful reflection on the past year even
as we eagerly look forward to the challenges and opportunities ahead.
