On Wednesday we will be having a Town Hall discussion about an important new development for the broad OpenMRS community.

**OpenMRS is actively researching and pursuing the role of becoming Fiscal Sponsor for the Bahmni project.**

We’ll discuss what this means for OpenMRS and Bahmni, and how it can work. We want community feedback about this idea, and we can answer questions about what we know so far.

**When** : Wednesday 26 July 2017, 14:00 UTC (10am in New York, 5pm in Nairobi, 7:30pm in Delhi, [see more](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=OpenMRS+Town+Hall&iso=20170726T14&p1=1440&ah=1)) **Where** : [https://www.uberconference.com/openmrs](https://www.uberconference.com/openmrs)
