Acerca del autor
Etta D. Jackson has worked in the field of education for 25 years as a teacher, guidance counselor, and district desegregation coordinator in both New York and Wisconsin. Her passion for wanting to make a difference led her to the founding of The Institute for Conscious Global Change (ICGC), an international non-profit NGO organization in Special Consultative Status with the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) of the United Nations. She now serves as the CEO of the Institute. This New York based organization was founded in 2007 to provide visual but tangible development solutions to support the unfinished mandate of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and now Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. With the aid of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Earth Observation and GeoDesign technologies, ICGC engages governments and citizens to develop integrated holistic and comprehensive development models for implementation in each country. Dr. Jackson is also the author of four books and many articles.
Amor Laaribi has over 30 years of extensive technical, managerial, and policy experience in the development, implementation and evaluation of geospatial information strategies, programs and projects in support of decision making and sustainable development. He joined the United Nations Statistics Division in 2000 to define and plan the priorities of the Division in geospatial information and to promote its use and integration with census/statistical information in developing countries. Dr. Laaribi has written/co-written two other books.
