May 2026 be the year we map every gap, fill every blank, and make women's contributions impossible to overlook. May it bring true geospatial equity, where every voice is mapped and every contribution is counted Happy 2026! #LadiesInMapsZw #OpenMapping #HappyNewYear2026

HaPpYy International #DAC24 πŸ₯³ We are committed to creating inclusive maps that cover data gaps in needs of the young. @UNICEF outlined, education helps lower the numbers on early marriages and we map safe spaces for development of such infrastructure to fight early marriages πŸ˜‡

Today might actually turn to be one of the best days for me πŸ˜… How about a webinar or podcast on this...thinking out loud 🀭 #earlymarriage #education #DAC2024
Each year of secondary education can reduce the likelihood of marriage before 18 by 5% or more. Girls in early marriages are much more likely to drop out and complete fewer years of school. Education empowers girls and prevents early marriage. #DayOfTheAfricanChild #DAC2024

Replying to @LadiesMapZim
@LadiesMapZim here we come.....anchoring on international goals πŸ™Œ Let's map #Zimbabwe a better place for our women and girls. Engage in our initiatives to raise this bar. It's sad when numbers are like this, why don't we do what we do best πŸ‘©β€πŸ’» #Education #ChildMarriage #Maps
Education is not just a right, but a powerful shield against child marriage. The longer a girl stays in school, the less likely she is to become a child bride. #EndChildMarriage #DAC2024

Just like Chimanimani, Nyanga faces harsh realities of cyclones and other disasters which disrupt education and community development, leaving girls more vulnerable to early marriage and school dropout. This is where the #OpenHeartsOpenMaps project comes in! Let's swipe!

But our mapping efforts can't stop there. Tropical Cyclone #Filipo has already begun impacting #Mozambique, #Eswatini, and is heading towards #Zimbabwe's Eastern Borders. The good news: #Chipinge is prepped thanks to #MapSwipe! Now, we're shifting focus to #Chimanimani

Calling all mappers to kindly jump in and assist with mapping the #OpenHeartsOpenMaps project for #Chimanimani on the #MapSwipe app. This will provide crucial data for disaster response efforts. πŸ†˜ #CycloneResponse #DisasterAnticipation #LadiesInMapsZim
