🍀 Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀 OpenStreetMap in Ireland has been thriving for years, even hosting our 2nd State of the Map in 2008! Since 2019, OSM Ireland has been a proud Local Chapter of the OpenStreetMap Foundation. Beyond everyday mapping, the Irish OSM community has been actively preserving genealogy, history, and heritage through mapping. OSM Irl.:

🌍✊ On International Women's Day, we stand against the patriarchy that has long silenced women’s voices in tech and mapping. But today, we celebrate the women pushing back—building, coding, and creating maps for a more equal world. The fight isn’t over, but together, we’ll map a future of justice, freedom, and inclusion. Let’s keep mapping. 💪 #IWD2025 #InternationalWomensDay #OpenStreetMap #DiversityInMapping #MappingTheWorld
