IDEAMAPS Ecosystem Project Kick-Off Event Lagos, Nigeria
To kick-off the design of the IDEAMAPS Ecosystem project, we are holding a full-day public event in Lagos, Nigeria on February 1st, 2023 (location TBD – likely near University of Lagos). The event will be highly interactive, so that in addition to learning about the scope of the project, participants will have a chance to provide feedback and shape the direction of this work. Event space is limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis, so register soon if you are interested!
