DESCRIPTION:Map Kibera has been working for the past two years with some o
 f Kenya’s county governments to create maps of their primary features an
 d funded projects. After implementing a Participatory Budgeting process\, 
 these counties realized that without good maps it was difficult for people
  to not only allocate resources\, but to work with citizens to identify ne
 eds and prioritize funds. Map Kibera has been assisting counties to map ke
 y features and projects in OSM by working with youth from the local commun
 ities. The maps not only serve to connect citizens to the budgeting proces
 s and hold county government accountable for the funded projects\, but\, t
 hey have also become central to county functions in all areas. This talk w
 ill share all about the process used and outcomes.
