Anybody Have a Map? The Government Does.

Our co-hosts Loren DeJonge Schulman and Rachel Klein-Kircher speak with Carrie Stokes and Sawyer McCarley about how digital mapping tools and technologies shape decisions about providing humanitarian assistance in developing countries, and why mentoring and investing in young people is critical to public service. Stokes is the chief geographer at the U.S. Agency for International Development and the director of the agency’s GeoCenter. She also leads the YouthMappers program, an initiative funded by USAID that cultivates the next generation of geospatial technology experts from around the globe. Sawyer McCarley, a former research fellow with the YouthMappers program, is a recent college graduate now working as a disaster recovery specialist with the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
