Virtual Interns Supporting Real Issues
Brooke Harding, USAID
For the second year in a row, USAID’s Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI) and the State Department’s Humanitarian Information Unit (HIU) have teamed up to leverage the State Department’s remote Virtual Student Foreign Service Internship (VSFS) program. The interns not only updated community level OpenStreetMap data in areas of USG foreign policy importance, but promoted the use of OSM across multiple university disciplines and increased awareness of the platform in support of issues in their own communities. Learn about our workflow and lessons learned teaching students in multiple time zones as well as some of the specific projects that came out of the two semester program. PSA: Although many government acronyms may be used during this presentation, NACIS community members should not feel pressured to remember said acronyms, as they will not be tested on their retention of these words at any point during the conference.
This presentation was made at the 2017 annual meeting of the North American Cartographic Information Society (NACIS) in Montréal. For more information on NACIS, check out http://NACIS.org.
