Our friends at Project Buendia, the collaboration between Google & MSF that built a specialized tablet for Ebola treatment in West Africa (as well as OpenMRS-based software) have recently announced that they’re expanding their project to focus on nutrition in the last quarter of 2015.

After this announcement, they got quite a few people interested in volunteering. Dan Cunningham from the team has posted some ideas for potential volunteers in the project’s Google Group. Part of their need is for work on their OpenMRS module. We’re hoping to have some chats with the project team this week, too, and will be sharing opportunities to get involved here on OpenMRS Talk.
Congratulations & thank you to the Project Buendia on their good work so far. Stay tuned for more news!
