United Nations Geographic Information Working Group

The United Nations Geographic Information Working Group (UNGIWG) is a collaborative group that focuses on improving the use of geographic information and technology in supporting the UN's work. It brings together various UN agencies to share knowledge, best practices, and resources related to mapping and spatial data. By doing so, the group aims to enhance decision-making, planning, and emergency responses within the UN system, especially in areas like sustainable development and disaster management. Essentially, UNGIWG helps ensure that geographical data is effectively used to address global challenges.
