We are creating a specialized content management and mapping framework to help indigenous peoples capture and tell the story of their lands on the world stage.
Our toolchain will be lightweight, work well offline, support low-maintenance devices like tablets and Chromebooks, and integrate with mobile data gathering frameworks like Open Data Kit and Sapelli.
Currently we are piloting this work with communities in Guyana, Peru and Cameroon. Field trials are nearing completion and we hope to make this freely available to all potential users from March 2018. An example of a website and monitoring data created by the Wapichan people in Guyana can be viewed at http://wapichanao.communitylands.org.
