Mapping - for Solutions to Poverty
Global MapAid is a charity dedicated to providing mapping solutions to address poverty. It is led by founder Rupert Douglas-Bate and its patron is Archbishop Desmond Tutu. The organization creates maps to help aid workers, donors, and communities in need. Current projects include creating poverty maps of London that analyze unemployment, vocational training opportunities, and their relationship to crime. To continue its work, Global MapAid needs to hire additional web and map developers.
