2014 Training Opportunity in GIS and Land Management! The GSDI Societal Impacts Committee provides a free training opportunity for up to three candidates from Africa or Latin America to attend the ICLPST (International Center for Land Policy Studies and Training) training Seminar on Geographical Information Systems and Land Management in Taipei. The training seminar will begin on 19 March 2014 and conclude on 1 April 2014. Chinese Taipei is the sponsor of the training program that entrusts ICLPST to carry out the project. Each participant receives a round-trip, economy-class air ticket for travel between his/her countrys capital city and Taipei by the most direct route, and will be provided with board and lodging expenses during the training seminar. The participant is responsible for any other incidental expenses in connection with the travel such as visa fees, airport taxes, en-route hotel accommodations, etc. Every participant must prepare a country paper about developments in their home country to be presented in class. The topic should be relevant to the theme of the course (see the curriculum). Other than for the presentation, participants are expected to bring and use their own laptop computers during the training seminar.
