<div dir="ltr"><div>Hello everyone,</div><div><br></div><div>Below is part of an email I received yesterday from William Tarpei. William retired from the United Nations, and for the last several years has been keen on getting college students involved in GIS projects that address the UN's <a href="http://sdgs.un.org/goals">Sustainable Development Goals</a>.</div><div><br></div><div style="margin-left:40px">
As I prepare to update my ARCGIS license in 2026, as I work on updating 
using GIS all maps included in my 1985 MPA thesis project paper - 
AFRICAN REFUGEE PROBLEMS IN THE 1980s, I would like to find at least one
 student collaborator who might already be seeking out a project for 
2026 UC GIS Week.   It would be great if that person was a current UCR 
student.    Could you recommend who I might contact on the UCR campus to
 further discuss?
