  • the mapping of indigeneous population territories, at a large scale with a specific project in DRC (and at a smaller scale with a worlwide project)- contact Ludovic (l_boyer[at]cartong.org)
  • the setting up of a protocole for when on-call firefighters departments in France go abroad to help in emergency situations and need to have access to context maps as soon as possible - contact Sandra (s_gonckel-berger[at]cartong.org)
  • Participating in the Digital Humanitarian Network, a consortium of Volunteer & Technical Communities and to provide an interface between formal, professional humanitarian organizations and informal yet skilled-and-agile volunteer & technical networks: the volunteers would be available to help with responses in terms of mapping and GIS analysis when the consortium is called upon- contact info[at]cartong.org
