DESCRIPTION:HOT's LAC hub dedicates an important part of its activities to 
 foster mapping and collaborative projects in the Amazon\, with different a
 cademic and civil partners\, and with the regional Openstreetmap community
  including its large student community\, in continuity with OSM-Latam's Ma
 pazonia initiative. \nThe Amazonia Program is a multifaceted initiative th
 at addresses mapping gaps and promotes social impact mapping in the region
 . Partnerships with disaster risk management\, civil protection and munici
 pal development authorities aim to fill mapping gaps and improve the risk 
 management and sustainable development\, including preservation\, of this 
 critical region for the world. Early mapping identifies vulnerable areas t
 o improve planning and response and make degradation processes visible. Th
 e community projects teach mapping and support environmental monitoring in
  several Amazonian cities and communities in Brazil\, Colombia\, Ecuador\,
  Peru and Bolivia\, fostering local engagement and open data ownership.\nT
 he set of projects develops technical competencies with the great diversit
 y of actors that have a role in the management of their territory (governm
 ents\, communities\, ancestral governments\, civil society\, supported by 
 universities)\, based on the use of free and collaborative geographic data
  (OSM) and “low tech” mapping and monitoring tools\, also free\, cultu
 rally relevant\, and with low connectivity requirements. \nIn this talk we
  will explain the long term strategy to map the Amazon\, will exemplify di
 fferent projects\, show the challenges for the region\, and show the diffe
 rent mappings that the audience can join and invite their own communities.
 \nThis talk will serve as an introduction to a practical activity that wil
 l be proposed to contribute to the mapping of Belém.
