SOTM Scholarship Program
The OpenStreetMap Foundation is excited to provide full travel and accomodations costs for 15 mappers to attend State of the Map. We sought nominations of people from places where costs would prohibit attendance, especially developing countries and places that are “interesting” geopolitically. The scholarships will provide an opportunity for these leaders of nascent OSM communities to network, learn, and find the inspirations and support to take OSM to the next level.
From 49 nominations, in 24 countries, we had the difficult task of choosing 15 recipients.
We are welcoming the following mappers in Girona:

Siesta!
As you can clearly see from this picture, SotM is a very relaxed place to be, with plenty of good talks, good people, and good food. Of course, a siesta is a very nice thing to do just after having lunch.
