We had fun learning about the importance of supplying accurate information on maps, also we learned about the various forms one can be able to provide sufficient information to a place through, taking clear picture, answering questions genuinely about that given place and making sure the information already there is really communicating what is on the ground. Also writing non bias reviews as a key way to provide reliable information.
Finally we summed it up with how to supply more information about accessibility to maps to help improve the information existing and to help those with special needs make the right decisions about the places they intend to visit.

Thank you so much for all the members who turned up for this event, I am happy that we leaned a lot of things together.

I loved the attendance, It was the best.

Good! I got to meet some of the local guides from North Rift during the GoogleAfrica10, they were really fun and very enthusiastic about the program.
