DESCRIPTION:During Foss4G Europe in Mostar 2025 a group of teaching enthusi
 asts from all over the world came together over a drink to discuss the pot
 entials of forming a global teaching network for Open-Source GIS to not on
 ly exchange experiences but also to talk about the possible role(s) for su
 ch a network. \nFrom continuous conversation it was found that until today
  no clear guidelines or best practices exist in regards to OS GIS educatio
 n materials. Unanswered questions like: “What should be part of a basic 
 GIS course? What software stacks should be taught and what file types shou
 ld be used?” led to the formulation of a survey that was shared with a w
 ide range of educational institutions and public administration.\n\nDuring
  this discussion and followed by a short panel discussion\, the survey wil
 l be shared with the community and the outcome and next steps will be disc
 ussed among the panel. Following the fishbowl principle the participants a
 re invited to join the discussion (and the network) to further grow and fo
 rm the next steps of the network.
