OSGeo Oceania is a not‑for‑profit chapter founded 2019 that runs an annual conference, manages bank accounts and an AWS-hosted web presence, and disburses grants — about $9,000 in grants over its first years plus roughly $20,000 in travel support this year. Conference history includes Melbourne, Wellington and a planned Fiji pivot to distributed hubs that reached 400 remote attendees. Governance uses a rolling board with two‑year terms, monthly meetings, an AGM and director elections in December; volunteers deliver operations and microgrants.
