Carter Draper

Global Projects Manager - Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT)

A former Country Director at iLab Liberia, Carter now works for the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT), where he supports programs and partnerships.

During the past nine years, he has collaborated with communities, governments, and private sector and development actors on programs concerning geospatial and participatory mapping, health emergencies, climate change, community and youth development, early warning and response, elections, peace-building, entrepreneurship, and open governance.

Born and raised during Liberia’s civil crises, Carter finds value in humanitarian work, open data, access to information, and the rule of law as key elements to building resilient communities.
