Star of the month
Meet kstor_80!
Kudos to kstor_80, our Waze Coordinator in Rwanda, for dramatically improving local routing with his high-quality map edits! He also developed an East Africa Community routing concept to enhance navigation for tourists.
A true community builder, he's mentored editors and organized events like a Waze Cafe in Kigali, a first for Africa! After a move, he's now making a difference in Uganda. Thanks, kstor_80, for all you do for Waze in East Africa!
