Chantha Ouanthavongsi, director of the Association for Preservation of Environment and Development of Community, immediately applied her new data skills at work.
“I was able to organize a workshop for my staff to integrate tools such as Mapeo into our projects because of the digital literacy training,” says Chantha. Mapeo is an offline map editing application for indigenous territory mapping in remote environments.
“Data tools such as Mapeo and Piktochart will revolutionize how my organization will collect and share data with stakeholders, donors and the public,” says Ouanthavongsi. “The skills I learned and these tools will democratize the use of data to help local communities.”
