Having the right information at the right time can change the impact of a disaster... Organizations like @MSF and the Nigeria Red Cross (@nrcs_ng) are using open map data to support the affected population of Maiduguri, Nigeria, after the terrible floods this past September.

Check out some pictures from a mapathon in Nairobi organized by the local @MSF office. Over 2,000 buildings in Mangochi district, Malawi were added to #osm during the event! Mappers also got insights from a GIS specialist on how #osm data supports WASH activities. Thank you!
