On Day 3 of Geo for Good, we feature an entire session dedicated to partners who have been using Google tools in a novel way. These talks are intended to share knowledge amongst participants who may work halfway around the world or in a different field of study. Thank you to all speakers and participants, come prepared with your questions!
