The Ebola outbreak has been devastating in Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia and Doctors Without Borders/other aid organizations need all the support they can get. This is a volunteer digitizing event using Open Street Map to provide detailed digital data to aid workers on the ground.
Anyone can join, even if you have no experience so bring a friend if you'd like! There will be food provided (pizza, chips, fruit, juice).
