At ‘mapping parties’, volunteers help to put neglected crisis regions on the map. This data is important for the work of aid organisations so that they can react faster and in a more targeted manner in the event of a crisis. The Red Cross and Médecins Sans Frontières are jointly organising a mapathon on 22 March to mark World Water Day.

Who can participate?

Anyone can participate, whether you are a beginner or an experienced mapper. All you need to bring is your own laptop (including a mouse).
