The openIMIS

...

community

openIMIS has been developed – and continues to evolve – through an open and collaborative process. Users, developers and implementers spread across the world are all part of the openIMIS community. They provide suggestions for new features, report and address technical glitches, and provide expert support to other users. In the openIMIS community, knowledge and expertise are diversified, rather than concentrated in a few hands. Anyone can contribute – and everyone benefits in return.

Elements of the community

Steering Group

The Steering Group includes development partners, scheme operators, implementers and other relevant organisations. It defines the overall strategic direction of the openIMIS Initiative and allocates resources for software development and implementations. 

Coordination Desk

The Coordination Desk operationalises the defined strategic direction, administers budgets and oversees committee activities.

Regional Hubs

The openIMIS Initiative has two regional hubs: Asia (Asian eHealth Information Network) and Africa (Jembi). Regional hubs support the community at a regional level and facilitate training and capacity development. They also act as a bridge between local and global levels.
