The 18th newsletter of the Commission on Cartography and Children was published and sent to all members and interested colleagues. Amongst other relevant topics, the newsletter contains information about the latest commission meeting at the 4th Conference on Cartography and GIS and the results of the voting process related to the rules of the Barbara Petchenik Competition.
